There is something to be said about our collective ‘pull yourself up by your bootstraps’ mentality. Most of us want to be in control of our own destinies. We want to hold on to the rudder as we steer ourselves into the future. It is a good character trait to have. It is a character trait ideally suited to the concept of online learning.
ProTrain is known as a leading provider of online training and certification for the unemployed, underemployed, and those looking to either reskill or embark on an entirely new career. To that end, we offer courses that lead to nationally recognized certifications. Our training programs cover a variety of industries as well.
You are going to spend a majority of your adult life working. But don’t just work, build a career that means something to you. We can help by giving you the opportunity to take control of your own future through the training you receive.
The Big Difference With Certifications
There are lots of ways to gain the skills and knowledge one needs to be effective on the job. Most of us are familiar with the concept of going to college to earn a two or four-year degree. That is certainly one way to do it. Another way to do it is to pursue certification instead. And even with a college degree under your belt, certifications are a useful tool for driving your career forward.
The significant difference with certifications is that they are industry specific. In nearly every case, they are also topic or discipline specific. Unlike college, where you may take a litany of courses that do not pertain to your career choice, certifications are laser targeted.
Take our AutoCAD Fundamentals Certificate course, for example. It is a 144-hour course jam packed with instruction covering nearly every aspect of 2D Computer Aided Drafting and Design utilizing the latest AutoCAD software. The course does not include a module on renaissance poetry or general philosophy. It is all AutoCAD, all the time.
We don’t necessarily have a disagreement with learning things outside of the technical skills you need to do your job. But those are extra things. If you are looking to get a promotion or reskill for a new career, you need knowledge that will actually help you reach that goal. Those other things can wait until later.
Why Training Online Works
The previously mentioned AutoCAD is just one example of the many fantastic online training courses we offer. It is instructor supported, meaning you get the benefit of working with an instructor – by way of email support, and more – combined with the ability to self-direct when and where you learn. Note that self-direction is one of the most important aspects of online training.
Online training works because it can be adapted to each student’s needs and preferences. It eliminates unnecessary distractions and clutter to allow students to focus on learning. If it helps, think of online training as a form of concentrated learning that allows you to control the flow of information.
