As a result of the advancement in technology, distance learning has been made possible using platforms that employ virtual services of e-Platforms. This type of learning has also been named as E-learning where knowledge is exchanged between the student and the teacher using an electronic source of e-Platform. Distance learning has mostly been studied under the academic reference whereas the effectiveness of distance learning in corporate and vocational institutes lacks research. This limitation in research needs to be resolved in order to compliment the strategies adopted by vocational institutes to impart knowledge. The main goal of this study is therefore to address the quality of training being provided to individuals through E-platforms at the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation. The review adopts the approach of a literature review using electronic data bases such as EBSCO, JSTOR and Google Scholar. These databases collectively helped to provide relevant research papers that have formed the basic foundation of concepts including distance learning, E-platforms and Vocational Training in terms of theory. The review creates a significant understanding of how E-platforms enable distance learning to be effective in terms of training quality at the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation present in Saudi Arabia. It concludes that there might be disparity in the quality of education being provided to individuals based on a number of reasons including that of ambiguity and absence of effective infrastructure etc. In order to reduce this disparity, vocational institutes need to adopt a proactive strategy to overcome these challenges.
