The Mentored Learning Approach
Mentored Learning is an on-demand delivery model - you determine when you attend training and for how long. Each workstation includes two computer monitors. On one, you can access the course content: video, text and audio. On the other monitor, you have access to the production environment so you can practice your skills at any time during the course. This allows you to fast-forward through areas, or stop the content and practice a concept hands-on as many times as you need. This increases knowledge retention and the ability to apply your newly acquired knowledge on the job.
Focused Learning
Skill sets are assessed prior to training to identify the gap between your current level of knowledge and required level of knowledge. Your learning path can then be customized to specifically fill that knowledge gap. You are completely in control of the pace of the course and the content covered so you can focus only what you need to learn.
One-On-One Mentoring
Certified Instructors are present to provide ongoing coaching, support and guidance throughout your training. Mentors can answer questions and provide additional instruction when needed to help increase your comprehension and retention of the course material.
Flexible Scheduling
Flexible course schedules allow you to get that added skill set while maintaining your daily schedule. For instance, the training schedule can be built around a work schedule so productivity in the workplace is maintained.
