Access to online learning allows staff to upskill wherever and whenever they choose, offering far greater flexibility at a lower cost than traditional classroom based learning. Being able to access a wide range of appropriate learning material at a point that is relevant to work requirements will support development in-situ and provide immediate impact on problem solving. The solutions built are more likely to be developed effectively and so meet user requirements in the most appropriate way possible. Developers having access to, and so programming in, the latest available technology will mean that resulting products are more likely to be future-proofed in terms of maintenance and any enhancement needed Deliverables: The Client requires access on an individual basis to a variety of on-line training courses.
