Abstract

 Background and Objectives: Organizations have used a variety of educational methods to achieve their goals in terms of in-service Training of their employees such as presentations and lectures, group discussions, field visits, case studies and so on. Virtual Training or e-learning is one of the newest and most innovative Training methods that organizations use to train their employees. Due to the special importance of in-service Training of employees on one side and the advancements in technology on the other side, the need to use these technologies in the field of organizational Training is called for more than ever. But, besides all these factors, organizations should not make unscrupulous and ineffective use of technology without adequate analysis. It is also logical to have a deep and accurate understanding of e-learning, in other words evaluating and analyzing the barriers of such courses ahead. In this regard, the present research aims to study the virtual in-service Training of employees and identify barriers to its effectiveness, a case study of the employees of Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences. The research is a descriptive survey and in terms of purpose, it is an applied research Methods: Statistical population of the study consisted of managers, academic staff and specialists in the field of the study. 29 people were selected through deliberate and snowball sampling among the statistical population. In order to answer the research questions, initially, using library study and interview method, data collection was done which resulted in identifying 32 factors. In the qualitative section, the data obtained from the interview were analyzed using content analysis. In this way, the number of words and terms used in the sentences and the amount of their repetition were counted and checked so that the patterns in the statements were discovered and the obstacles were extracted in the form of short phrases. The Delphi method was then used to confirm the consensus of experts on identified barriers. During the three stages of the Delphi method, finally 25 factors (barriers) in the form of six main barriers were classified. After concluding the final consensus with the Kendall coefficient of 78%, the factors were ranked using Friedman test. Each of the sub-factors was also ranked. Findings: All in all, 32 factors were identified and ranked as barriers to e-learning and in-service Training: factors related to the learner were ranked first, infrastructure factors, general factors, educational content, factors related to the teacher and organizational factors were ranked afterwards. Each of the main barriers had other sub-factors which were also evaluated and ranked with Friedman test. For example, in the section on barriers related to learners; learner resistance to change was ranked first; limited knowledge and skills of learners on information technology were ranked second; lack of trust in cyberspace learning was ranked third; and learners’ limitations in accessing Information technology instruments was ranked forth Conclusion: Considering the identified obstacles and also determining the importance of each of them, measures (such as cost) taken to ensure the effectiveness of in-service virtual Training are suggested to focus primarily on learners and then on other factors based on the degree of their importance.
