Abstract

Despite its common utilization in developed countries, e-Learning is relatively new in intensive ASN training in Indonesia. The utilization of e-Learning has increased sharply due to the Covid-19 response protocol that imposes restrictions on physical interaction. This study aims to reveal the challenges and opportunities in implementing e-learning in ASN training in Indonesia during this pandemic. This study applied a descriptive approach. The quantitative data was collected through surveys, while the qualitative data was collected through interviews. The data were obtained from widyaiswara (trainers), organizers, participants, and alums of the 2020 CPNS Basic Training held at the ASN Cadre Development Center of the National Institute of Public Administration (LAN). The findings show that widyaiswara, organizers, and participants, in general, can adapt to e-Learning, even though it is relatively new and sudden and apt to have several challenges. The adaptability results in the excellent progress of the training initially designed with the classical model. It implies the existence of opportunities to overcome several difficulties identified to ensure that e- Learning can become an integral part of the ASN training system in Indonesia.
