Why e-learning?

Vestas has 20.000 employees in 93 countries and expects to hire 3-4.000 new employees every year. That demands a flexible and effective introduction program.

The decision to start an e-learning based introduction program was made to address a number of strategic challenges. These challenges include securing that new employees all over the world are introduced to Vestas in a uniform, flexible and effective way in order to enable them to act in a constantly growing organization; and also to create a global understanding for Vestas' value chain and culture.

Vestas has established a central unit focusing on e-learning and effect measurement. This signals that the choice of e-learning as a learning tool is not a one-off phenomenon. On the contrary, Vestas has launched several e-learning solutions since the Induction program, with positive results, and further launches are planned in 2009.
