If successful, this kind of training system could have benefits for customers. E-learning could be very effective when automated and accurately measured and managed. If Docent has the muscle to bind together consultancies, resellers, and training providers in one giant cooperative network, and solve the issues of standards and measurement, it is entitled to sit in the middle of an enormous new high-growth industry. Now the company is pursuing trade bodies to run links on their sites, and asking IT training providers to market Docent's services. As a result of Docent's strategy, companies are increasingly likely to bump into its offerings when considering the use of online learning facilities.
Docent provides e-learning management.
It is creating an affiliate network to link training content providers, enterprise customers, and industry community sites. This approach to e-learning could gain enough momentum to develop widely recognised standards for courses and course management.
