The Benefits of Online Learning
 
  • Cost
    Most online courses are less expensive than their live counterparts, especially if there are travel, lodging, and per diem expenses involved when attending live courses.
       
  • Convenience
    Students can "attend" an online course at anytime, from anywhere. The online course accommodates your schedule, rather than the other way around. Course material is available 24/7.
       
  • Portability
    Students can access the course material from anyplace on the planet that has a good Internet connection – home, the office, the public library, or the Starbucks down the street. Geographical barriers to education are virtually eliminated.
       
  • Pace
    The student sets the pace, not the instructor. Students have the ability to study and review the course material as many times as necessary to achieve the level of comprehension they desire. This one benefit can make online learning more effective than live courses for many people.
       
  • Retention and Comprehension
    Online learning lets students attend class when they are fully awake, attentive,  and in an environment that enhances their focus. They can attend in short or long sessions as fits their situation in that moment. All these factors can increase the speed, retention, and comprehension of the learning process.
