New business lines in training organisations

While the introduction to training raises numerous passionate challenges, it also implies having to learn how to manage new dimensions :

· Change in management from training groups to individuals
· From synchronous to asynchronous and formula mix,
· From a single source (the trainer) to multiple resources
· From one spot to many sites.

Training managers and their teams probably have to learn how to manage this complexity by:

· creating the training conditions (including tutoring)
· develop practical approaches with simple systems,
· mobilise internal (IT, finance, legal, general management) and external partners for a definite ambition and clear- project.
