How e-learning can contribute to workforce development

Overcoming barriers to Workforce Development

Research from the Flexible Learning Advisory Group (FLAG) provides a picture of how e-learning can help to overcome barriers to workforce development.

Prepared by the University of Sydney’s Workplace Research Centre, the Enabling workforce development report investigates the impact of e-learning on workforce development in nine industry sectors funded and supported by the Australian Flexible Learning Framework (Framework).

The report identifies the type of critical workforce development challenges e-learning can help overcome. This is analysed at three levels of economic activity: individual, workplace and industry.
