Learning system and related methods particularly suitable for an organization's supply chain

摘要

The invention disclosed relates to a learning system and related methods for providing training and continuing education to members of an organization's supply-chain workforce. A learning system utilizes a blended learning approach that matches various educational delivery techniques to the appropriate learning materials, time constraints, and skill level of the end user. The system is simultaneously accessible to multiple organizations in order to provide uniformity of learning among a wide variety of participants within the supply-chain workforce, while remaining adaptable to the unique learning needs of each organization. Thus, the invention captures the benefits of distance learning techniques while minimizing the isolationist learning environment typically associated with those leaning delivery methods. Furthermore, the invention seeks to capture the benefits associated with traditional learning delivery methods such as team-oriented learning and personal instructor feedback.
