Abstract

Organizations are about to go through a transformation process that will bring changes in social and economic relations motivated by the enormous advance in information and communication technologies [1, 2]. These technologies will be able to promote an intense and intelligent interaction between human beings and machines, which will affect the way they are produced, requiring changes in the professional profile and skills of workers [3]. Faced with this scenario, corporate education mediated by IT information technology presents itself as a viable option for the continuous development of employees. From this premise arises the question of research “what is the main difference between the factors that influence motivation and employee engagement when submitted to IT mediated teaching methods and traditional methods of study according to Martin's model [4]”. The results found indicate that the factor with the greatest difference in impact between the methods was the Planning, indicating that for the CE mediated by IT, managers should have greater attention. It is concluded that a possible solution to this problem would be to allocate a weekly period for employees to study even those who are in IT mediated methods, reducing this feeling of uncontrolled and lack of planning, besides helping in the issue of anxiety and disengagement. The theoretical contribution was the confrontation of two different corporate teaching methods using the same model, generating a practical contribution for managers of which factors have the greatest impact on each teaching method.
