Abstract


This case study examines how the human resource department at the target company used features of their learning management system (LMS) to successfully implement a learning and development (L&D) program where employees were motivated not only to engage with courses in a meaningful way but also to complete them at a rate that was higher than that typically seen for eLearning courses. The research discusses the results of a study on the case organization and presents the implications of the findings.
