Social Learning Platforms, also known as SLPs, are virtual spaces that people use to learn from each other. People who take part in this type of learning are called learners and their mentors. The main objective of a social learning platform is to help people learn by observing the behavior and point of view of others. SLP can be used for many different purposes including sharing knowledge on different resources.

Self-Paced Learning is a new concept in learning that has not been widely adopted by businesses. In this form of learning, the learner can control the volume and time duration required to learn a piece of information thoroughly. The self-paced learning methodology was developed in response to issues arising from traditional methods such as long training sessions with set schedules and rigid lecture formats which could bore distributors quickly. This approach provides flexibility for those who wish to take their own time but also encourages each other.

With the rise of new learning methods, distributors are finding it difficult to keep up with the fast pace. Distributors need relevant and timely information on a regular basis. The solution is Just-in-Time Learning Platforms (JLP). JLP provides content that is tailored to what each distributor needs to know at any given time and place. It helps direct selling organizations reduce costs by reducing time wastage in enrolling distributors with long, ineffective, and boring training programs.
