Advantages of One-on-One Computer Training
Advantages of One-on-One Computer Training
One of the learning styles popularized in the past was one-on-one training. The advent of the internet certainly changed how individuals chose to digest information, however, and one-on-one training quickly vanished from sight to be replaced by websites, internet forums, and chat groups. But is there still a place for one-on-one personalized learning? Many experts argue that one of the oldest ways of learning is still one of the best.
Myths – The Cost.
One of the strongest myths about one-on-one learning is the cost factor. Many employers assume that paying for extensive individualized learning and training is something simply not worth the capital investment. Accounting departments fret and stew over the potential for training individuals. The cost per hour does come with a higher price tag, but the overall expense of one-on-one computer training is actually comparable to e-learning or traditional classroom learning. This is because many one-on-one sessions take place within a shorter time frame and covers more material.
Myths – Less Focused Learning.
This relates to the learning style of many people, as one-on-one computer learning can be considered less focused than instructor led learning in classroom settings. Actually the opposite is true. Studies have shown that one-on-one learning is more focused on an individualized sense of learning, allowing the student the ability to choose his or her own educational path. This makes for more focused learning because any questions are answered as they are asked and any problems can be sorted out quickly.
Myths – Time.
Many people assume that one-on-one learning simply takes up more time than classroom learning. This is a misnomer, as the focused learning of this style of training makes is quicker and more concise. Because of the possibility to answer questions as they are asked and to focus on individual needs, the learning process takes up less time and leaves more room for other workers to be trained. In the end, the economy of time and money saved makes one-on-one learning an attractive choice.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
