Sponsored by Isoph (http://www.isoph.com) and N-TEN (http://www.nten.org), the survey provides the first broad data on mission-based organizations’ use of e-learning technologies. From August 24 through September 15, 2004, 697 individuals responded to the Web-based survey, offering important insight into how nonprofits and associations develop and use e-learning.
Additional findings include:
• High satisfaction
More than 88 percent of respondents indicated they were very or somewhat satisfied with their e-learning programs. Another 10 percent reported that they were somewhat dissatisfied, while only 2 percent were very dissatisfied with their e-learning programs.
• Key benefits: convenience, access, and cost-effectiveness
Almost 88 percent of respondents listed "convenience for learners" as a key benefit of e-learning. "Cost effectiveness" and "ability to reach more learners" were also chosen as key benefits by over 70 percent of respondents.
• Biggest barrier: staff time
When asked to report the three biggest barriers in developing e-learning, "staff time" was the only choice listed by a majority of respondents (54 percent). "Funding," "expertise," "concern about end users` technology," and "concern for effectiveness" were all listed as barriers by at least 30 percent of respondents.
The full survey report, including key findings as well as statistics, is available for download as a PDF file at http://www.isoph.com/pdfs/2004_Nonprofit_E-learning_Survey.pdf.
