Virtual Hands-on Training blends the qualities of instructor-led classroom training with the convenience of a virtual online classroom. This type of training is typically delivered using a web application. Some of the more popular platforms for delivery include Adobe Acrobat Connect, WebEx, and GoToMeeting. Classes include lectures, demonstrations and/or hand-on labs. This type of training cuts down on the expense of travel, the time of getting to a classroom, and brings the instructor directly to your personal computer or work terminal.
As high speed connections improve, companies are increasingly choosing this type of training over the traditional classroom. Leading this movement is technical training, software training, creative software training, and soft skills (business/management) training. A typical online virtual hands-on training session may be attended by one or more students from the same or different companies. There is typically an average of four to eight students in a Virtual Classroom.
