Purpose

The concept of e-learning is essential in employee education since it provides different ways to develop employees' knowledge, skills and attitudes using modern technologies. E-learning has been overgrowing in employee education because learning can be held anytime and anywhere. In order to succeed in implementing e-learning and benefiting from its capacities, and avoiding potential threats in the country, it is necessary to address the factors affecting its success. This paper aims to test the role of internet of Things (IoT)-based systems, cloud-based services, virtual classes, evaluation tools, attitude, content management and creativity on the success of employees' e-learning programs based on a framework.

Design/methodology/approach

E-learning systems receive ever-increasing attention in academia, business and public administration. With the development of e-learning, employee education has also benefited from its capacities in various fields. To succeed in implementing e-learning and benefiting from its capacities, and avoiding potential threats in the country, it is necessary to address its success. The proposing of Information and Communications Technology (ICT)-based technologies such as the IoT, cloud, etc., in e-learning, can help transform education. Therefore, this paper aims to test the role of IoT-based systems, cloud-based services, virtual classes, evaluation tools, attitude, content management and creativity on the success of employees' e-learning programs based on a framework. The research model and the data collected from the questionnaires have been analyzed via Smart PLS 3.2. This study has utilized the SEM to evaluate the causal model's reliability and validity based on measurement. According to the literature in this study, a framework has been proposed that examines the impact of IoT-based systems, cloud-based services, virtual classes, evaluation tools, attitude, content management and creativity on employees' learning programs' success.

Findings

The results have shown that IoT-based systems, cloud-based services, virtual classes and evaluation tools are four significant factors affecting attitude, content management and creativity. The results have also shown that attitude, content management and creativity are three significant factors affecting employees' learning programs' success. The factors above are considered critical in explaining the success of employees' e-learning programs, but, as far as we know, there has been no study in which all these factors were demonstrated together.

Practical implications

From a practical viewpoint, the statistical outcomes support the important role of the following factors: IoT-based systems, cloud-based services, virtual classes, evaluation tools, attitude, content management and creativity. Henceforth, aspects relating to these factors got the attention of any organization to develop e-learning processes.

Originality/value

This research will contribute to the literature related to employees' e-learning programs' success by integrating all the mentioned variables. As far as we know, it is the first study to test these variables in Iran.

用于分析基于 ICT 的新技术对员工学习计划成功的作用的新模型

目的

电子学习的概念在员工教育中至关重要，因为它提供了使用现代技术发展员工知识、技能和态度的不同方式。电子学习在员工教育中一直在增长，因为学习可以随时随地进行。为了成功实施电子学习并从其能力中受益，并避免该国的潜在威胁，有必要解决影响其成功的因素。本文旨在测试基于物联网 (IoT) 的系统、基于云的服务、虚拟课程、评估工具、态度、内容管理和创造力对基于框架的员工电子学习计划成功的作用。

设计/方法/方法

电子学习系统在学术界、企业界和公共行政领域受到越来越多的关注。随着e-learning的发展，员工教育也受益于其在各个领域的能力。为了成功实施电子学习并从其能力中受益，并避免该国的潜在威胁，有必要解决其成功问题。在电子学习中提出基于信息和通信技术（ICT）的技术，如物联网、云等，可以帮助改变教育。因此，本文旨在基于框架测试基于物联网的系统、基于云的服务、虚拟课程、评估工具、态度、内容管理和创造力对员工电子学习计划成功的作用。研究模型和从问卷中收集的数据已经通过 Smart PLS 3.2 进行了分析。本研究利用 SEM 来评估基于测量的因果模型的信度和效度。根据本研究中的文献，已经提出了一个框架来检查基于物联网的系统、基于云的服务、虚拟课程、评估工具、态度、内容管理和创造力对员工学习计划成功的影响。

发现

结果表明，基于物联网的系统、基于云的服务、虚拟课堂和评估工具是影响态度、内容管理和创造力的四个重要因素。结果还表明，态度、内容管理和创造力是影响员工学习计划成功的三个重要因素。上述因素被认为是解释员工电子学习计划成功的关键，但据我们所知，还没有研究将所有这些因素一起证明。

实际影响

从实践的角度来看，统计结果支持以下因素的重要作用：基于物联网的系统、基于云的服务、虚拟课程、评估工具、态度、内容管理和创造力。此后，与这些因素相关的方面引起了任何组织的关注，以开发电子学习过程。

原创性/价值

这项研究将通过整合所有提到的变量，为与员工电子学习计划成功相关的文献做出贡献。据我们所知，这是第一项在伊朗测试这些变量的研究。
