Over the years I've trained many thousands of people on the practical aspects of exporting and importing. Face to face training can be highly affective.
E-learning has a number of distinct advantages however. You can learn at your own pace and go back to things you don't understand first time. You can study at a time that suits you and avoid work piling up while you are out of the office.
When problems occur you can go back to an online tutorial for a refresher. And you can use the course assessments to check you have really understood the topic and reached a reasonable level of competence.
There's just one problem with e-learning. Many training companies' e-learning is little more than text on screen and is BORING! That's why we've worked so hard to make all our e-learning both engaging and interactive.
