The Mentored Learning
Approach
Mentored Learning is an on-demand delivery model, you determine when you
attend training and for how long. Each workstation contains two computer
monitors. On one, you can access the course content: video, text and audio. On
the other monitor, you have access to the production environment so you can
practice your skills at any time during the course. This allows you to
fast-forward through areas, or stop the content and practice a concept hands-on
as many times as you need. This increases knowledge retention and the ability to
apply your newly acquired knowledge on the job.
Focused Learning
Skill sets are assessed prior to training to identify the gap between your
current level of knowledge and required level of knowledge. Your learning path
can then be customized to specifically fill that knowledge gap. You are
completely in charge of the pace of the course and the content covered so you
can focus only what you need to learn.
“Mentored Learning gave me the chance to focus on the sections of the
course that will have the greatest impact on my production environment.” –
Stephen Bonomo, Syracuse University.
One-On-One Mentoring
Certified Instructors are present to provide ongoing coaching, support and
guidance throughout your training. Mentors can answer questions and provide
additional instruction when needed to help increase your comprehension and
retention of the course material.
“Having the Mentor in the room was a huge benefit because he was able to
answer any questions that I had while relating those questions to real-world
examples to reinforce the topic of the question.” - Michael E. Baker,
Computer Specialist, Cornell University
Flexible Scheduling
Flexible course schedules allow you to get that added skill set while
maintaining your daily schedule. For instance, the training schedule can be
built around a work schedule so productivity in the workplace is maintained.
“The flexible hours allow me to come and go as I need to handle other
issues that may pop up in my daily routine.” - Michael J. Meadows, MCSE
