This paper describes the application of Internet-based technologies to
improve skills within manufacturing industries. Employees need continued
training and e-learning offers a more flexible method to complement and
replace conventional training. The methodologies and advantages of elearning
are described, with its freedom from time, travel and accessibility
constraints, as developed by one of the world leaders in e-learning
techniques. Supported by the EC Leonardo da Vinci programme, a
multidisciplined engineering and software team has developed innovative
ways to deliver vocational education and training to companies and
individuals via Managed Learning Environments. Interactive learning
material and multilingual video lectures are included in the presentation
and the written paper, with references from the international companies
and organisations that contribute to, and make use of, this modern
approach to knowledge management and transfer.
