With Coronavirus spreading rapidly across the country, thousands of people are being advised to avoid social contact and stay at home. Not only is the outbreak causing havoc among businesses and individuals, but it is also threatening education and training as we know it.
Here at TSG Training, we understand that there are many concerns around Covid-19 and many of our clients are choosing not to attend training courses. Our top priority is the health and safety of our clients. All of the courses that we are running follow the latest health and safety guidelines, and we are working hard to ensure everyone is properly protected.
We also understand that many people may not want to travel at this time. Due to the current uncertain circumstances, we are developing a range of virtual learning options, because we believe that your training shouldn’t have to be put on hold. In fact, if you’re self-isolating, now is the perfect time to take stock and work on your personal and career development.
Why Consider Virtual Training?
Virtual and online training options offer many advantages, many of which are particularly prevalent in today’s situation. Here are just a few of the reasons why you might consider virtual learning;- Accessible: When you choose to complete your training using virtual learning, you are selecting an option that is always accessible from anywhere. As long as you have a device with an internet connection, you can take part in the training. This means if you are spending more time at home due to Coronavirus, you don’t have to put your education on hold. You can continue your learning in the safety of your own home and make the most of your downtime.
- Regular Lessons: Our virtual courses are hosted regularly so you can always stay up to date with your education. Just the same classroom lessons, our virtual training takes place at the same dates and times for your online participation.
- Affordable: With no travel costs involved, virtual learning is often a more affordable option for you. As the entire course can be completed without leaving your home, there is no need to factor in hotel, petrol, train or bus fares.
- Convenience: Virtual learning gives you the chance to complete your course at your own convenience. This means you can work around other commitments and families. If you find yourself looking after your family, working from home, or with other responsibilities, you can still complete your training.
- Full Support: Just because you aren’t physically in a classroom with a teacher, doesn’t mean you don’t have support during your learning. You will receive the exact same support from teachers as you do with classroom learning and will be undergoing the exact same lessons.
- Participation: As you will be taking part in the same classroom lessons as other students, you are still able to participate in the same way. You can interact with your tutor and fellow classmates, giving you the chance to ask your questions and discuss your learnings.
- Personal Touch: Unlike other online training, our virtual training courses still offer that personal touch that you get from a face to face training. You will still have the same human communication and interaction. Many people who undergo online training sessions that are not human-based worry about the loneliness of a virtual environment, but that’s not the case with TSG Training.
