Journal of Blended Online Learning

You are the safety director for a manufacturing organization that has a main campus and two remote locations. It is time to renew your employees’ training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED), and first aid. As you sit down to schedule the training, you deal with the realities of the traditional process: how to minimize the impact on production…how to accommodate shift employees… how to include remote location employees… how to control costs…how to handle the few employees who cannot make the training session… Maybe blended learning can help.
