eLearning is the process of delivering educational content or curriculum on a given topic to people through an online website, course, or Learning Management System (LMS).

eLearning is well suited to students of all ages, particularly in a hybrid learning environment that includes both live and self-directed instruction and online and in-person engagement with educators, trainers, and fellow learning participants.

Online courses benefit students and employees by supporting improved learning outcomes and career growth and upskilling.

Online education involves developing course content, sharing it with learners, and potentially, evaluating their learning through assessments like tests or projects.

eLearning tools might include video conferencing, breakout rooms, discussion boards, slide decks, and interactive activities, all aimed at helping a range of learners establish a strong understanding of the topics being taught.

Research shows that students have a range of different learning styles and preferences, where differentiated learning and inclusive and accessible practices can significantly improve learning outcomes.
