Through blended learning, employees have more opportunities to learn and engage.

They can learn from trainers face-to-face, and if they need to work more on a new concept or practice, they have access to all useful material online at all times.

Employees can revisit this material to strengthen their understanding on their own, and also meet with trainers to discuss questions and problems face-to-face.

• Blended learning enables employees to learn through different styles.
• Only learning face-to-face can increase dependency on trainers.
• Being able to learn independently as well as face-to-face is empowering and motivating for employees.
• Also, it allows trainers to manage training sessions more efficiently, especially when training large groups.

Employees have more opportunities to learn on their own, at their preferred pace and time.

Plus, training instructors are no longer bound to cover everything in the face-to-face training sessions.

They can break down the course for increased efficiency and have the freedom to decide what they want to emphasize in training sessions.

Also, if all employees are not on the same level, using an online learning platform means that every individual can be evaluated and given the attention they need to learn and make progress.

Overall, blended learning bridges the gap between what is taught and what is learned.

Conducting online training sessions, when it makes sense, can save a lot of time and money.

For example, multinational companies often conduct training sessions in one location, and employees from other countries have to travel to be there.

Also, renting a large seminar hall to host a training session can be very expensive.

Therefore, from saving on travel costs to seminar rooms rental, blended learning minimizes operational costs significantly. In addition, it saves the time that companies have to invest in organizing training events on a large scale.

And some of the hours that it usually takes to go over everything in a face-to-face training can now be divided between online and in-person work.

In a face-to-face training session, it can be difficult for the instructor to determine whether everyone is on the same page or not.

Some employees absorb the material quickly, while others might be struggling.

On the other hand, an online platform that contains various types of learning material, such as videos, ebooks, lectures, and presentations, can be used to track individual progress more effectively.

These tools incorporate built-in analytics that can evaluate and present a more accurate analysis of individual learning.

Thus, in a blended scenario, earning becomes more predictable, accurate, and measurable.

Not every employee performs well during face-to-face training sessions.

Similarly, some might find the online-only learning platform too complicated.

Blended learning provides employees a perfect approach; with different modes of learning, everyone can benefit in one way or another and take advantage of the provided opportunities to learn and grow.

Face-to-face training by itself might not provide employees with the opportunity to communicate effectively with the instructor, especially in large groups.

With only a limited time allotted for the in-person training session, a trainer only can entertain a few questions as they need to cover all aspects of the training module.

With blended learning, online platforms become a part of the learning process.

At the same time, employees can find plenty of opportunities to communicate with the instructor and their team members through the dashboard and other built-in communication tools.

Similarly, employers and instructors can reach out to their employees more efficiently and assign different tasks, address problems, and discuss ideas more conveniently through the online platform.

Employees become more confident in approaching tasks as they get a deeper understanding of new topics and learn new skills.

Cognitive learning equips employees with the skills they need to learn effectively. They are thereby able to develop problem-solving skills they can apply under challenging tasks.

Through the experience of learning, the employee will be able to recycle and use the same learning methods that worked previously. This will help them learn new things a lot faster as they already know what works for them when it comes to obtaining new knowledge..

Cognitive learning can also teach you to form a range of different concepts such as easily perceiving and interpreting information that could boost creativity and lead to innovations at the workplace
