Off-the-shelf e-learning is often geared specifically towards the needs of
corporate clients. Public sector users, however, including government bodies,
often have unique requirements of their own, which may differ from the
standard feature set.
That’s not to say there’s no overlap. Public sector organisations face increasing
pressure to compete with the private sector in order to attract the best talent,
while at the same time dealing with dwindling budgets. They need to meet the
expectations of a new generation of potential candidates, without spending
excessively on infrastructure, licensing or services contracts.
