GTI Learning.com / EBSI Survey on E-Working Trends.
E-working is a way of working. E-workers use computers and telephone lines to receive and deliver work regardless of location. Working in this way, e-workers can service your organization's needs from a home office, a serviced center or whilst on the move. The basic principle of e-working is that work is what people do, not a place they go to.
GTI Learning.com, in association with the E-Business School of Ireland, invite you to take part in the survey below. The survey's objective is to measure as far as it is possible, the current state of e-working and to identify trends in terms of company's future plans with regard to e-working.
As a reward for participation in our survey, you will be entered into a special draw to be held on the 31st of August 2001 in which one lucky participant will receive Free Courses from GTI for the following 12 months! That's well over $1,500 USD worth of training! All participants will also be registered with our GTI Passport Program.
