If you work for a small business and you’re responsible for employee training, you probably have a long list of other projects that require your attention every day. It can be challenging to block out time to provide the coaching and training employees need. Here’s how you can stretch your time and provide amazing training with eLearning.


One-time set up
Depending on the business size, when you’re training employees, there may be constant interruptions from other employees or customers who have questions or need your help. Keeping focused on the training session can be difficult. If employees don’t show up for the training, due to sickness or other work commitments, you’ll need to commit time for another session.

A Learning Management System (LMS), such as Traineaze, can simplify the training process. After identifying the training topics and tools needed to explain information, such as a PowerPoint presentation, videos or photos, you upload the materials into the online training software, and it’s ready to use. If you need to modify the material, editing takes only a few minutes. For tips on developing a training plan, read this blog.

Engage employees
Businesses recognize that employees are their No. 1 asset. However, employees need continuous training to be effective in serving customers. An eLearning system makes it easy to train new hires and provide updates to employees. According to Inc. magazine, connecting workers to your customers can improve their persistence, performance, and productivity. If employees don’t feel engaged in their work, they are more likely to look around for another job.

24-hour access
One of the hallmarks of eLearning is that employees can access the training material at any time, any day, or anywhere on a digital device. They can watch one or two modules, then take a break to work on something else. Many employees find that when they learn at their own speed, they understand the information and remember it.

An LMS training program connects associates who work out of different offices, creating a unified team. Since employees all have the same information, knowledge gaps are minimal. It’s easier for team members to work together on projects from any location.

Verify understanding
When conducting training sessions, you continually check to make sure employees comprehend what you’re teaching. You can also verify understanding with eLearning. Most online training software includes options to set up quizzes for each module or conduct a test at the end. If employees don’t score above an established score, they can review the training modules and retest.

Empower employees
Online training can be set up to provide complete information to employees. Studies show that when employees understand their responsibilities, they are confident and satisfied with their work. Customers will notice the positive attitude of your workplace. They will want to do business with you because they trust your products and services.

Offer amazing training
As a trainer, an eLearning program helps you provide complete information to employees. As you receive feedback from employees on the training material or by testing results, you can tweak the content to improve the content. Bottom line, you can provide employees with amazing training. You’ll have less stress and be able to stretch your time to handle other responsibilities.
