Why Social Blended Learning Solutions Outshine E-Learning

Table of Contents

At the current pace of change, a surefire way to get left behind is to stop investments in employee training. A second, less sure, yet probable way is to stick with old-school online learning solutions. 

Pure e-learning courses have abysmal completion rates of around 15%. That’s where social blended learning solutions come in. Unlike traditional online courses, the blended training approach mixes the social benefits of virtual instructor-led training (VILT) with the accessibility of on-demand content to increase personalization and engagement. This way, corporate training remains scalable yet can be tailored to your organization’s goals. 

What Online Learning Solutions Can and Can’t Do

There’s a good reason why e-learning platforms are a cornerstone of corporate learning strategies in many large enterprises. These platforms primarily offer scalable learning solutions through extensive content libraries, an essential feature for organizations with a vast and diverse workforce. This ensures that learning and development initiatives can be deployed efficiently across global teams, regardless of the size or location of employees. Traditional e-learning platforms thus come with their own set of advantages, including:

🌐 Scalability: Learning content platforms can accommodate an unlimited number of learners, making them ideal for companies needing training solutions across large, geographically dispersed teams.

📚 Quantity of Content: Covering a wide range of content, online-only learning solutions give learners access to a breadth of topics. This allows learning managers to conveniently manage different courses in one place, from technical skills to soft skills training.

🔗 Tech Stack Integration: Integration with existing technology stacks provides seamless experiences for learners and administrators alike. This helps you leverage current systems to track learning progress, generate reports, and manage users efficiently.

But, while traditional e-learning platforms may promise convenience, they often fall short of meaningful outcomes. Here are just a few:

🤯 Overwhelming Content: Sifting through vast amounts of generic content wastes valuable time and often fails to meet specific learning objectives.

🌀 Skill Mismatch: Without the ability to tailor content, there's a high risk of a mismatch with your team's existing skills and what's needed to advance.

📉 Low Engagement: Passive learning experiences lead to disengagement, making retaining and applying information effectively difficult.

❌ Lack of Tangible Impact: Without a clear connection to business outcomes, traditional e-learning investments often show little to no return.

Why Blended E-learning Solutions Drive Unbeatable Results

The one-size-fits-all approach of traditional e-learning platforms can’t keep up with the evolving needs of organizations. Simply making content available to employees is neither a guarantor of engagement nor of business impact. 

By contrast, blended training solutions leverage strategies that put employees at the center of the learning journey to engage and involve talent across the organization. Through virtual, live interaction between instructors and students, the socially-centered approach of blended learning enriches the learning experience to make it more engaging, memorable, and therefore impactful.

Additionally, blended learning fuses theory and practice, creating the space for trainees to apply new skills under the supervision of an experienced practitioner. Students can test their skills through interactive course elements like quizzes and gamified content. Move beyond passive video lectures with an interactive, hands-on approach that makes learning an engaging, practice-driven experience.

Does Blended Learning Make Business Sense?

You might think blended learning solutions are all about making employees happy. But that’s not all! This approach involves delivering learning journeys based on content tailored to your organization's unique business objectives and skill demands.

✨ Customized Content: Unlike traditional platforms drowning you in irrelevant content, blended learning ensures every learning module is directly aligned with your goals, ensuring maximum relevance and applicability.

🎓 Stackable Learning Paths: With a unique “Assess – Train – Repeat” methodology, you guarantee continuous improvement and skill acquisition, making learning a cumulative, impactful journey rather than a one-off event.

📈 Proven Impact: Your employees get to apply new skills to existing business challenges, making blended learning a proven method to achieve tangible business outcomes.

🚀 Scalable Learning Solutions: The combination of live and on-demand content means you can easily scale successful learning paths. All you need to do is book additional live training sessions for your topics of interest.
