eLearning

What is eLearning?  It is Effective, Efficient, and Affordable Training!

It is an Internet-driven, convenient, and cost-effective means to deliver on-demand training.  You can now take ongoing training anytime and anywhere.

It includes:

  • Interactive self-paced training - after registering, users log-in to the website any time, from anywhere, and with the click of a button, begin taking a course online at their own individual pace.
  • Real-time Training - groups of users log-into a website at the same time, and participate in a session led by a ‘live’ instructor.  Participants can talk to each other and the instructor online.  These are sometimes called Webinars.
