The material that is delivered is consistent as all learners are viewing the same expert information and is on demand as required by learners. Portability is the strongest force for E-learning.Disadvantages include a large upfront investment and the development of a new technological framework as well as the costs involved with changing the culture of the organization. Social interaction is a large factor for the movement against e-learning. It may take the team mentality from a workforce if it is not applied properly.
