Abstract
End-user training (EUT) plays an important role in enterprise resource planning (ERP) implementations and successful operations. Nowadays, most EUT is conducted with the support of digital media. In this study we investigated the impact of the amount of time spent by learners on different content types, namely media enriched text and video screenings, on acquired factual and conceptual knowledge as well as acquired skills concerning the ERP system. Findings show that more is not categorically better.
