E-Learning and Business Plans : National and International Case Studies

With the invention of desktop computers, electronic learning or e-learning has become a convenience for individuals with busy schedules. The past several years have produced a continuous stream of much-needed innovation in e-learning, but challenges have appeared as the creation of courses and material has evolved.

Who subsidizes the upkeep? What if a better product elsewhere can perform more cheaply and with a more advanced technology infrastructure?
