eLearning

eLearning is the use of technology to allow people to learn anytime, at any location and at their own pace. Studies have shown that participants in online courses learn as effectively and in some case, more effectively than those in classroom courses.

The Academy of Emergency Training offers two approaches to eLearning - online training and blended training.

1. Online Training - course participants take their entire program online.
2. Blended Training - course participants take one component of their training online and when successfully completed, they attend a classroom session to practice and confirm skill abilities for an instructor.
