Why blended learning?

Overview

Our blended learning combines the best of two effective training environments by blending traditional face-to-face classroom sessions with a self-paced lesson in our Learning Management System. Participants can learn at their own pace via short video lessons and then complement their learning with live instructor lead sessions. 

Benefits: 

  • Learn at your own pace from anywhere without disrupting your work schedule 

  • Benefit from the face-to-face interaction with our expert 

  • Manage time and learning by leveraging two training environments
