What is the training workplace?

Is it your workplace? The offices of a registered training organisation (RTO)? Or is it the hallowed halls of an educational institution?

Flexible Training Options

These days the training workplace can be anywhere. The introduction of e-learning and online facilities mean people can train when and where they like.

At work, at home, on the train…

Gone are the days when businesses, or people studying were tied into an inflexible training timetable with only face-to-face teaching options.

E-Learning Advantages

The first advantage of e-learning is the flexibility.

E-learning opens training qualifications to everyone because there is no need to be able to make it to a particular place at a particular time to take a course.

E-learning opens training

• to full time employees with families
• to trainees in regional and rural areas
• to trainees with disabilities that can restrict access to some facilities

to many who wouldn’t otherwise be able to take advantage of a qualification.

Training Changes in The Workplace

The changes that modern technology offer for training delivery have changed the way workplace training can work.

Once training could be seen as a cost, or a task too difficult to organise but now there are so many opportunities to create a training workplace that doesn’t detract from or takeaway from a business workplace.

When we take the training workplace out of the workplace and move it online the opportunities are endless.
