Survey says

T+D, August, 2003

Age matters in e-learning preferences and motivations, says a new survey by Cambridge Online Learning. Twice as many 16- to 24-year-olds (33 percent) were concerned about "levels of support" in courses than 45- to 54-year-olds (15 percent). The younger respondents were also dramatically more motivated to take training by "better job and salary prospects" (75 percent) than their older colleagues (47 percent).

The 45- to 54-year-olds were more interested in courses with "relevance to real-life work" (31 percent) than the younger set (23 percent).
