Distant Learning survey results

In December 2008 we conducted a survey about Distant Learning. We are pleased to share the report (PDF) with you, which helped us determine:
  • How people learn Java
  • The perceived disadvantages of classical courses and traditional e-learning
  • The perceived advantages of coached e-learning
  • Which course elements coached eLearning should offer
  • Why developers take exams
  • How many hours a week developers would spend on e-learning
  • If managers would offer coached e-learning to their developers
  • If developers think managers would allow them to take coached e-learning

Again, we would like to thank the 130 participants in this survey.

New survey, more points

We are launching our next survey as a follow-on, this time specifically on Coached eLearning.

You can take the new survey here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=SaH59Fy0TxcZykQKMN_2ftZA_3d_3d. As usual, we will reward your participation to the survey with 10 contribution points per participant.

You'll be able to read our conclusions by the end of April 2009.
