| Abstract | COMPARING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INSTRUCTOR-LED TRAINING TO STAND-ALONE WEB-BASED TRAINING: A CASE STUDY by Robert P. Myre Web-based Training (WBT) is still a relatively new technology, and the full extent of WBT functionality has yet to be realized. Most of corporate America recognizes the necessity of a well-trained workforce; however, instructor-led training is often difficult to implement due to a variety of logistical issues. These issues include cost constraints, location issues, and limited resources. WBT has been touted in recent years as a viable alternative to traditional, instructor-led training. However, the effectiveness of WBT versus instructor-led training has been questioned by its many critics. This case study tested the effectiveness of a standalone web-based training program and compared the results to that of an identical instructor-led course. The course provided highly task-oriented instruction for a computer software package and was developed using a proven instructional design methodology. The data from this study indicate that WBT is as effective as instructor-led training for purposes of software application training.
