E-Learning is a learning process that uses the computer as a medium of transferring, storing and presenting information to the learners. The first part of the study presents the needs for e-Learning and follows its evolution through time. The infrastructure used to implement this process is then presented along with the way that learners benefit from this learning method. A framework for e-learning and the conceptual design of an educational gateway and its subsystems developed at the Faculty of Geoinformatics, University of West Hungary is then presented. Different business models for e-Learning are also presented along with their presumed impact on the world. The study concludes with how e-Learning business models will change the educational services and greatly improve the effectiveness of transferring knowledge in the future.
