Higher education via a college or university certainly has its benefits. In fact, there are some careers that are impossible to break into without a formal degree. But fast-paced online training also has its advantages. One of them is being able to learn quickly and then get on with your life.
A primary difference between certification training and higher education is the educational goal. Certification training focuses on narrowly defined knowledge bases and skill sets. It is highly specified training that doesn’t include any fluff. A college degree program is a broader and more rounded experience. Students gain a larger volume of knowledge, some of which will not be utilized in the workplace.
Our question for you is this: What are your educational goals? Perhaps you’re preparing to enter the job market for the first time. Maybe you’ve been working for a while and are hoping to take advantage of upskilling opportunities. Or perhaps you are just tired of what you do and would rather embark on a new career. Regardless, the fast-paced nature of online certification training could be exactly what you need to break through.
Months, Not Years
We refer to our certification training as fast-paced for one simple reason: our courses can be completed in months rather than years. Our highly coveted Administrative Office Assistant course is the perfect example. It is a self-paced course completed entirely online.
Once enrolled, you have access to course materials for 12 months. You complete coursework on your own schedule. If you need the full amount of time, that’s great. But you are also free to complete the course in just 6 months. Do it in 3 months if you want. It is up to you.
Completing the course means earning a certificate. Regardless of how long the coursework took, that certificate represents an open door to opportunity. You have gained that opportunity without having to enroll in a multi-year degree program.
Your Future Isn’t Waiting
Here at ProTrain, we firmly believe that a better future starts with education. But we also believe that the education-to-employment model is a better way to train most workers whose jobs don’t really require a degree.
The education-to-employment model is built on the idea of learning exactly what you need to learn to do your job. It’s a model that emphasizes teaching job-ready skills and knowledge. What you learn in a certification program should be immediately relevant to what you do at work.
Why do we utilize this model? Because we understand that your future isn’t waiting. Every tomorrow on your calendar is another day that makes up your future. Those days will not stop coming and going. So if investing in education doesn’t prepare you for work, you’re letting valuable days slip through your fingers.
