Technology has altered the way training and development is delivered in business and industry. The various benefits of online learning have influenced the increasing use of online learning methods. As organizations address the challenges of online learning, better evaluation methods and standards will be developed. The future success of online learning will depend on being a key component of the organization's strategy. Organizations must have a supportive culture, partnering abilities in those involved in implementing online learning, and management involvement, and must ensure that the needs of the learners are met. This chapter discusses the current environment of online learning in business and industry, followed by a case study from one of Intel Corporation's training organizations. (Contains 2 figures.)
