Canadian Government Agencies Are Adopting eLearning to Fill Knowledge GapsProduct Type: Market Research ReportPublished by: IDC Published: November 2004 Product Code: R104-17512 Description
IDC believes that e-learning solutions will emerge as a tool to help executives fill the IT and business skill gap in government. Up to 45% of government executives indicated that they will grow spending in e-learning solutions. In this study IDC Canada examines the adoption of e-learning in the Canadian government sector. The document includes an analysis of investment plans in e-learning for different sets of IT and business skills and the reason why various levels of government are adopting e-learning. The study provides valuable insight, prediction and prescription for external vendors targeting the Canadian government sector market on how to effectively sell e-learning systems. "Canadian government executives need to update and renew business skills in their organizations, also to replace highly experienced professionals that are rapidly approaching retirement. Many of them will choose e-learning solutions to train their employees flexibly and at a low cost. To craft compelling solution offerings vendors must identify the investment patterns, by level of government and by set of skill" says Massimiliano Claps, Senior Research Analyst, IDC Canada Customer Segments.
