McDonalds and e-Learning

The idea for this post was arrived at quite accidentally. I was on my way home from Harrisburg today and stopped with a van full of kids at a McDonald's. One of my kids started joking that his friend was going to work for McDonald's and that he was at least smart enough to run a fryer. I was drawing a blank on what to post on this blog when he made this remark and I started thinking that McDonald's probably would have a lot of e-learning opportunities for training employees on their equipment and probably had a variety of mandatory trainings on safety issues and the like. I went on Google and looked around (not for long), and I found this article that discusses the role of e-Learning in the McDonald's corporation.

Maybe not the most engaging of topics, but I found the article interesting.
