Abstract

COVID-19 brought very big challenges for business, and organizations needed to react immediately. In the new circumstances, the knowledge of employees must not be neglected even in situations when the implementation of traditional forms of training is not possible. This put in focus online learning as a method of acquiring knowledge that is cost-efficient and effective. The aim of this chapter is to point out the new circumstances, limitations, and possibilities for the development of e-learning that have arisen as a consequence of the pandemic. The purpose of this chapter is to point out the possibility that the existing situation can be significantly used for the period of normal business that should follow after the stabilization of the pandemic. Perception of employees in companies in Serbia demonstrate that there are possibilities for implementation of online learning. Still, there are differences in point of views depending on certain aspects such as gender or experience in using internet browsers, and this opportunity should be used for enhancement of this tool.
