Not a trend, but the need
Beaten Truth: Nowadays everything is developing rapidly, and to survive, you need to sleep for life. The company will not be able to develop if attention will not pay attention to the development of employees. Plus, there were new professions that are not taught in universities yet, but you have to take someone to work now - companies have to take the training of personnel on themselves. In general, without learning employees nowhere. But learning is a lively - slow and expensive story. By the time, when employees are finally trained, information often becomes obsolete. And to keep in the state of teachers and constantly renting premises for classes - expenses that are not all companies can pull. Online learning happens faster and costs cheaper. And this is just a way to survive, not a new-fashioned trend.

Convenient training - Happy employees
Online training is beneficial not only to its organizer. Employees also like this format, because he implies freedom: you can go through an online course anywhere and when it is convenient. You can choose the time when the employee is most productive as possible, and get knowledge, sitting in a cozy chair with a cup of tea, or fill out the way to work in public transport.
