ONLINE DIGITAL EDUCATION

Online Digital Education is the New Norm! The Post Covid time has been very challenging as the consecutive lockdowns have affected the whole mindset of work and education across the globe.

Online or Digital workspaces and training sessions are the new norms of these days.

The Online Skill based courses are doing brisk business, though there are drawbacks but still no one can deny the benefits too. Key benefits of Online Digital Education and Skill trainings are abundant.

Flexibility and Self Learning – Now with the prevalent Work from Home conditions people have a little more spare time to learn what they never had time for before. They can indulge in their short term learnings or pursuing hobbies at their desirable timings. Offline classes had a lot of dependency on the teachers but here you tune yourself to a dedicated pattern of self-learning too which leads to good growth and more focused approach. The flexibility allows you to easily balance work, life and education. The motivation boost is amazing when you accomplish these soft goals while managing other things.

Huge boost to Virtual Communication and Collaboration– Working with others in a virtual environment can build up your communication skills as now you need to do all your work by talking. The communication courses have seen a spurt as people now need to be better by utilizing specialized knowledge and becoming software savvy to create better presentations and get wider reach. Companies or Institutions are paying more attention towards the right communication as with the help of Zoom, Google or other such apps you get a facility to record every meeting or a lecture hence you can’t leave loose ends or be casual.

Time Management– Multi-Tasking work, family and education is a challenge but with online trainings you learn to excel at managing all three within your daily routine which is a big plus for you at the time of hiring or upgrading your jobs. Employers like to hire people who can multi task. Online classes keep you on a regular schedule, achieving deadlines and staying productive in a timed-frame. This is a very valuable asset in any potential employee.

Connecting Worldwide– Keeping-up with the pandemic restrictions almost everyone explored the digital platform to its best extent. More and more E-commerce, E-education, E-entertainment and E-engagement is now happening online. When you were getting trained in the physical environment, you could only mingle with the local population but now your window to the world is wide open, you get to know and communicate with a global audience, enhancing your spectrum of learning in a broader perspective. You get culturally aware about other netizens.

Saves a lot of Stress and Money– Online education cuts down a lot of running around time from home to the institute/organization and also saves the transport expenses involved. You can be more relaxed and comfortable in your zone and learn with more focus. Also it is believed that you innovate better when you are able to focus more. It improves your critical thinking and analytical skills, you start browsing, exploring and the global exposure also helps in good grooming. Interactive classes also bring out your fear of engaging with the teacher or other class mates. You start to feel more confident and approach becomes easy. The teacher in smaller groups gets to create a rapport with the students which sometimes is not possible in a physical class. A study shows that when you are out most of the day you also eat a lot of unhealthy and junk food which leads to further health problems. Being at home controls that.

Better Connectivity and Technical Skills– Agree or not in a way it has also forced the net providers to gear-up and create a better network connectivity even in remote areas for staying connected nationally and internationally. More and more people of all ages got exposed to internet and computer skills. Who knew Wi-Fi will become a necessity and we all would become trouble shooters. With most jobs requiring virtual competency embracing technology is crucial to success. Most companies are using combination of apps and software, so that knowledge also will count as an added asset.

Social Media growth has seen an exponential high. Environment saw a decrease in pollution levels and people are being forced to break their “In the Box” approach and innovate newer options to learn and earn. Not everything is good but change brings out the better of humans!
