However, to maximise learning, Hager is not only providing product knowledge via eLearning: it is combining the online training with appropriate attendance-based seminars. This "blended-learning" strategy provides a "not only… but also" option, consolidating elements of eLearning and attendance-based learning into a single comprehensive training architecture. Hager uses eLearning as required to prepare, monitor, and consolidate attendance-based training.

ELearning content is available via a learning-management system in the cloud. Using an IMC learning environment, not only can learners complete WBTs; they can also access material such as webinar recordings and interactive instruction manuals in the form of "smart lessons", which can be used at anytime, anywhere, on any device.

Readers of imc’s new case study will learn more about the rich variety of Hager's training strategy and how the latest technologies and a highly competent partner can help to eliminate training barriers. "It’s always a pleasure to work with IMC", said Martin Zimmer, Online Training Consultant at Hager.
