Why a Live Online Training Course May be the Best Fit for You


With the increase in free courses on YouTube and Mooc courses many people are wondering why they would pay for a course when they could just self-study. Self-study absolutely has benefits, you can learn at your own pace and fit it in when you have time. But there is the catch, unless you are extremely focused and have few distractions your learning ends up being pushed aside.


The pandemic has brought about a transformation in almost every industry.  The live training industry is no different and these changes may make you want to consider turning on that computer and registering for your next live training session. Live training sessions are more appealing than ever! The ability to deliver a training live online has reduced costs for training companies, resulting in many companies charging less for their high-quality courses. They are more convenient too. No need to travel to a big city, just get out of bed and log on to your Zoom meeting. Using Zoom platforms allows for a different and sometimes more engaged teaching environment. Break out rooms, polls, and the ability to share a screen with integrated learning tools has made the transition to online learning seamless. 


Of course, the regular arguments for attending live training still hold true in an online environment. With a live instructor and engaging activities attendees are less likely to zone out or get distracted during their training. There is an expert present to answer questions right away, they can identify if the content is being understood and one of the biggest benefits is the importance of making connections during training. This opportunity to network and learn from others in your industry can not be underestimated. For those still working at home, it provides a welcome interaction and can refresh your team. 


Did I mention that live online classes allow companies to provide expert trainers from all over the world? At TechnoEdge Learning, we employ top instructors from the UK, United States and Canada to teach our cybersecurity prep courses such as the CompTIA A+ certification, CompTIA Network+ training and CompTIA Security + training. Our talent pool has exploded, and we are benefiting from having the opportunity to learn from others in our industry from around the globe.
