Measuring elearning programs

Measuring eLearning Programs
Quote: "In implementing elearning at many corporations, I find, repeatedly, that one of the biggest differences between elearning and other forms of training is that elearning is completely trackable. You know everything that every learner did, unlike classroom training. You have the opportunity to measure precisely the impact of your elearning investment."
Comment: I disagree. With elearning, you can track what learners did...but you can't precisely measure the impact of the investment. By its nature - a part of learning will always be "untrackable"...learning shapes and changes who people are, what they do, and how they respond to situations. No ROI program can track that.
