为了从电子学习中受益,公司应该进行大量的前期分析,以评估他们的准备情况。市场上有许多工具可用于评估电子学习的准备程度。然而,几乎所有这些工具都是为在人力资源开发领域成熟的国家使用而开发的。因此,这些工具由术语,短语和应用程序组成,对许多公司来说毫无意义,特别是在人力资源开发领域刚刚取得进展的新兴国家。本文包括一个调查工具,已开发的描述,以评估这些类型的国家的公司的电子学习准备和一项研究的结果,探讨在土耳其的电子学习公司的组织准备。这项研究表明,接受调查的公司总体上已经准备好进行电子学习,但他们需要提高自己,特别是在人力资源方面,以便能够成功地实施电子学习。虽然这一工具是根据土耳其公司的文化特点开发的,但它可以很容易地被其他新兴国家的公司所使用。
In order to benefit from e-learning, companies should conduct considerable up-front analysis to assess their readiness. There are a number of instruments in the market that can be used for assessing readiness for elearning. However, almost all of these instruments are developed to be used in countries that have a mature field of human resources development. So, these instruments consist of terms, phrases, and applications that are meaningless for many companies in especially emerging countries where human resources development field has just shown an improvement. This article includes the description of a survey instrument that has been developed to assess e-learning readiness of companies in these kinds of countries and the results of a study that examines organizational readiness of companies for e-learning in Turkey. The study reveals that companies surveyed are overall ready for e-learning but they need to improve need to improve themselves, particularly in the area of human resources, in order to be able to successfully implement e-learning. Although this instrument has been developed according to the cultural characteristics of Turkish companies it can easily be adapted to be used by companies of other emerging countries.
