E-learning needs analysis

John Sloan discusses the importance of e-learning needs analysis. To quote:

It is important to establish right at the beginning that e-learning technology is not a total solution. Even its most ardent advocates will argue that e-learning technology is only part of the package. Regardless of the goals you set for this strategy, chances are that you will be looking at both technical and non-technical training assets. It is worth noting that, while IT departments have been leaders in the adoption of e-learning technologies, as much as 74 percent of computer skills/IT training is delivered via instructor-led classroom means, 18 percent is delivered via computer media (asynchronous technology) and only 4 percent by instructors connected to learners from remote locations (synchronous technology).
