Online learning continues to grow in popularity. Most of our health and safety courses are available to take online, in the comfort of your home or office.
The training industry uses different phrases to describe online learning, including online training, virtual learning or remote learning. Simply put, online learning is a course which is delivered in a live online environment.
Typically, online learning courses are delivered via video conferencing software such as Zoom, Skype or Microsoft Teams. A trainer will deliver live throughout the course, so the content is delivered similarly to how it would be in a classroom.
Most of our courses are easy to book on our website on the course page.
There are many benefits to online learning, including that it’s a convenient and cost effective solution. Online learning removes the need for delegates to travel which can help delegates to feel more relaxed than they would be in a classroom environment.
On our online courses, we encourage delegates to interact with each other and participate in activities as they would in a classroom. We use a number of tools to allow this including, discussions, quizzes, breakout rooms and presentations.
Delegates are provided with digital copies of the course materials (where relevant) and even complete their assessments and exams online.
We also have eLearning courses that are suitable for everyone, self-paced and delivered online.
At 3B Training, we use Zoom to deliver our online courses. To attend an online learning course, delegates need a computer or laptop with access to the internet. Delegate also need a webcam and a microphone, which are typically built into the laptop.
Our team will email the link to access the course along with joining instructions when you make a booking. Delegates simply need to copy the link and paste it into their web browser to log in before the course starts.
The Trainer, using the webcam facility, will ask delegates to show proof of ID. Course materials, such as books are also provided depending on the course.
Just because the course is online doesn’t mean you get out of taking the exam – sorry! Delegates complete the exams online for online training courses and the exams are still invigilated.
The majority of awarding bodies allow their courses to be delivered online when there is no practical element or assessment needed. This means delegates receive the same certificate they would if they completed the course in a classroom.
Very! The feedback we get is fantastic.
Here are a few examples of feedback for our online training courses:
“Easy to do and not as complicated as I would have thought, enjoyed the course, was well planned out.”
“It was a first-class & enlightening course. The delivery was excellent and set at a good pace. I definitely made more notes and digested the information more than I would have in a classroom.”
“Amazing support and training provided, highly recommended.”
“Excellent way of doing the training, definitely the way forward, 3B and the trainer were very helpful in guiding me through, as it was the first time I’ve done online learning and would do it this way next time and use 3B.”
With no requirement to attend a classroom, anyone can participate in virtual training. Delegates must meet the course-specific prerequisites and have access to a laptop or desktop with internet, webcam and microphone.
In addition, location and travel are no longer barriers to attending courses, and expenses such as travel, food and hotels are removed for employers.
