Many view e-learning as the future of and a fundamental transformation of the learning environment. Even more fear that their business will get killed if their employees are not learning fast enough to innovate and complete in the knowledge based economy.

Announcing `E-Learning-on-Top' (EloT) - HP's value proposition for online learning, Mr. Anand Shankaran, Country Education Manager, said ``We can get companies to get started with ELoT at almost zero investment, without any risk of sunk investment and pay for use benefit. This way customers focus on their competency rather than investing time and money on content, delivery or logistics.''

The HPES integrated learning model offers both asynchronous and synchronous learning facilities for individuals and enterprise customers.

Emerging Internet technologies such as e-learning enable on-the- fly services in profiling, personalisation, subscription, brokering and instruction. An organisation could integrate such technologies to create an educational ecosystem that realises advanced learning strategies, flexible training delivery, optimal HR deployment and desired outcomes for their learning communities.
