eLearners.com Launches Free Online Assessment Tool to Determine if Online Education is Right For You

April 20, 2004--eLearners.com, creator of the leading website for connecting learners to online education, announced the launch of eLearners Advisor (www.elearnersadvisor.com), a new tool designed to assist prospective students in determining their readiness for online education. The free seven-minute assessment tool asks 42 targeted questions designed to evaluate the user's preparedness. eLearners Advisor then provides comprehensive feedback and information that students can use to help them decide if an online degree program is appropriate for their needs.

"It's difficult for anyone to understand what an online degree program is like without actually experiencing it," said eLearners.com founder and President C.J. DeSantis, who himself earned a master's degree online. "The eLearners Advisor provides valuable feedback to help users understand the demands of online learning before making the commitment to enroll."

eLearners Advisor is designed to assess e-learning readiness in four important areas:

·Technology access (computer & Internet access)
·Personal factors (motivation & scheduling issues)
·Technical skills (computer & Internet skills)
·Learning styles (as they relate to online education)

Feedback is provided based on how the user's answers compare to existing theories about online student success. In areas where challenges may exist, eLearners Advisor provides advice and recommendations for improvement.

The eLearners Advisor is available at no cost to individuals who visit www.elearnersadvisor.com or the eLearners.com website, and to qualified colleges under special licensing arrangements.
