Distance Learning Here to Stay

KITV had a great article on the top 10 aspects of distance learning.  The two that struck me were:

• Distance learning will be used by businesses to help market their products.
• Distance learning is here to stay.

I agree with these trends.  Businesses will use distance learning to help make their potential customers knowledgeable about their products and services.  If a business has a quality product/service, knowledgeable customers will want to know more about what makes the product/service so valuable.  Distance learning is a step up from static web pages.  Distance learning helps the customer obtain knowledge, not just infromation.  Accessible distance learning increases the potential market penetration.  Accessibile distance learning is inclussive and should help grow market share.  DigitalChalk is trying to be the most rich in content and accessible distance learning platfrom.
