There are many advantages in applying multimedia elements in training.

employees need to stay on track while training. Being able to train online around their
own schedule gives employees the opportunity to fit the training into their productivity
workflow however best suits the situation.
2: Diverse Teaching Materials:
The multimedia platform of eLearning delivers teaching materials through the diverse
methods of text, music, photos and pictures, animation and interactive modules. All of
these can improve your employees’ ability to learn, and to retain the knowledge they’ve
learned

Approximately 65 percent of people are visual learners, which makes the video
component of eLearning essential to increasing engagement. Video content delivered in
an episodic format is known to increase the retention of  knowledge by dividing the
learning into manageable portions.

4: Reduces Training Costs:

Multimedia training can reduce the costs of your training department in numerous ways.
It reduces the time it takes to learn, thereby reducing costs. The Hudson Institute of
Indianapolis has conducted research that concluded an average of 40% time reduction
when using online learning and multimedia as opposed to more traditional methods.
