Are you sure that e-learning is right for you?
Focus offers both traditional instructor led classroom courses and e-learning packages so we can provide independent and unbiased advice.
Advantages:
1. Flexibility to study at times which suit you
2. Pace of learning is set by you
3. Cost of training is less, and need to travel reduced or avoided
Disadvantages:
1. Training usually takes longer (and courses are not always completed!)
2. No chance to network and share experiences
3. Less opportunity for support and advice from a "real person"
Focus recommends that you always choose an accredited solution, AND for higher level qualifications choose packages which include at least some classroom content.
