What is e-Learning?

Electronic learning, or e-Learning as it is typically called, represents an innovative and powerful means of delivering education and training that enhances interoperability and understanding among participants. It offers increased access to education and training opportunities, with on-demand availability, cost savings, self-paced courses, consistent and accurate delivery, condensed instruction and opportunities for collaboration.¹

One of the capabilities under the e-Learning umbrella - and the most common form of e-Learning in NATO-is ADL, which features educational or training courses delivered over a network using a standard web browser.
