Characteristics of a Successful Online Learner

We want to provide opportunities that offer options and flexibility of learning to our customers.  Our 5 Day Courses are a perfect fit for learners who engage more successfully with face-to-face immediate interactions while learning.  For those who are seeking a more flexible approach, online learning may be a good fit.  Our asynchronous courses provide flexibility to complete learning at your own pace at a time of day more convenient for busy schedules.  If you are considering one of our online courses, we recommend these study habits and personality traits in order to ensure a more successful learning experience:

• Is a self-disciplined and self-motivated person.
• Is very adept at time-management and sets aside time to work in order to stick to a schedule.
• Is an independent learner.
• Asks for help and expresses concerns when needed.
