Remote Learning Frequently Asked Questions

 

For more information , please email us, call 952.896.6800, or contact your training advisor. 

 

How does Remote Learning differ from Distance Learning?
  • Remote instructor-led training mirrors all the benefits of classroom instructor-led training and the added bonus of being able to choose almost any location
  • Class size is limited to the same quantity of students as the normal instructor-led classroom
  • The instructor’s presentation is interactive with all students. This is possible because of the class size limitation and the use of innovative technologies and best practices
  • Labs are conducted during the class time with the required assistance from the instructor. Labs are also available after hours until the last day of class

 

How do I know if I am a good candidate to be a Remote Learning student?

A strong Remote Learning candidate:

  • Understands remote technologies, virtual computerization and Internet technologies
  • Is technically literate and has strong computer skills (2-4 years experience)
  • Has taken a web or distance learning class before
  • Has access to a computer that meets the system requirements

 

A candidate that may experience difficulties with Remote Learning:
  • New to the technology field with little experience
  • English is their second language

 

What is the registration process?

Call your Training Advisor to register for a class and complete a “Systems Check” that ensures your PC is Remote Learning capable.

 

Can Remote Learning students ask questions and get lab assistance?

Yes, the instructor will be working with the remote student much like they would if they were in the classroom. The instructor will be able to view and assist remote students with their labs. Additionally there is a “how to” portion of the Best Practices guide that every Remote Learning student will be provided prior to class start.
