- Invest in on-demand tools such as searchable online libraries of books and data, which learners can tap into for the latest information on whatever they're working on.

- Try a corporate social networking portal that not only facilitates collaboration among employees, but maybe even allows workers to access books and data compiled by peers and supervisors.

- Implement a blended, integrated approach in which e-learning and classroom are combined with hands-on projects and ongoing feedback.

- Create a place online where project teams of employees can post outcomes of their work for other teams of workers to read and learn from.

- In addition to e-learning featuring rich simulations and streaming video, "multimedia" can mean vivid, 3-dimensional materials such as illustrated learning maps. Tie these physical pieces to the e-learning modules you create for a more impactful training experience.
