The time for Blended eLearning is now, and fortunately there are an abundance of strategies, best practices, tools, and validated approaches in the marketplace to draw upon. In fact, this potential synergy—this convergence of people, processes, and technology across an enterprise—is the primary focus of this book. Bielawski and Metcalf have demonstrated how a multidisciplinary, hybrid approach to learning and development can really make a difference in human capital management and how HR professionals can use technology advances in online learning, electronic performance support, and knowledge management to jump start the entire process.
