Today I taught an online class remotely from Regina, Saskatchewan for a client in Winnipeg, Manitoba who was learning Adobe Acrobat DC.
The day of training was recorded in its entirety which leaving the student with a complete record of the class, conversations answers to customised questions. The quote of the day was “I love this! I can learn in my own home, at my own computer with a coffee in my hand”.
I think that there are a lot more benefits to online instructor led training that could benefit your team.
The Positives of Learning at Your Own Workstation
There are some positive side effects of teaching online. Students working at their own workstations or laptops can ask questions, share their screens and which in turn enables them to ask questions that they would not otherwise be able to if they were in a training centre. There are new levels of authenticity to this and although the face-to-face time is a slightly different experience it does not seem to diminish the experience.
Bringing Remote Teams Together With Online Training
I foresee some great opportunities for delivering instructor led training for teams that work remotely together that can save on travel costs whilst bringing teams together to share questions, experiences and all in a format that will is recorded live & that will be available for review at a later date.
The recorded video means that topics can be covered in depth and at speed. Over the past few training sessions I’ve covered about 1.5 days worth of material in 1 day knowing that at any point in time any student attending can review and re-cover the material at their own leisure.
