8 EU-definition of SME It states that SME: “…is made up of enterprises which employ fewer than 250 persons and which have an annual turnover not exceeding 50 million euros….” So far, few SMEs in Europe have e-learning experiences

13 YORK Refrigeration Training installation of cooling systems and reparation of cooling system components. Web-based e-learning used in conjunction with classroom and workshop training as individual learning and as manuals and documentation When the e-learning was introduced, the customers were included as a secondary target group. For them, the value of the e-learning initiative has a much larger potential and a much better effect than expected. The video “ York Icewater Plant ”is available via Per Schou-Nielsen explains how York is using these tools in a Danish video interview, which is available via (

14 Elektro Biergans ( German SME with 12 employees within trade sector eLearning used for further training in office management For Dagmar Biergans it was not possible to join classes two times a week for one and a half years. Minerva online focuses especially on women as a target group not being able to attend face to face seminars because of their family situation.

15 a-punkt ( SME within service sector, dealing with architecture, involved in eLearning project dealing with soft skills/competencies. A-punkt has 3 employees. One of them has enrolled in a project management course, which is designed for employees in a firm.

16 Kristin Løvvik: "KPMG har valgt denne løsningen fordi den er svært fleksibel i forhold til tid og sted. Våre ansatte kan gjennomføre kurset når de har anledning til det, og de slipper å bruke tid på reise til våre sentrale kurslokaler. Vi mener også at dette er en kostnadseffektiv og rask måte å oppdatere kompetansen innen en virksomhet som er spredt over et stort geografisk område.” Over 400 ansatte i KPMG må beherske den nye regnskapsloven før neste regnskapsår. De valgte å samarbeide med NKI om å utvikle og gjennomføre dette som nettbasert opplæring.

22 Model for cost effectiveness

23 We want to develop a spreadsheet or web- application that calculates, compares and illustrates the costs related to face-to-face seminars and ”online course hotels”. So I wonder if anyone have developed such spreadsheets or web-applications that we may have access to? We are also interested in references, links or pointers to articles or web-applications related to cost effectiveness and ROI for e-learning in SMEs.
