Blended Learning Format

EduMine's blended learning format integrates online learning with the dynamics of a classroom short course by industry specialists.
Prior to a short course, registered participants are provided with an internet url, user name and password. This enables them to access online e-learning material consisting of one or more online EduMine courses. This learning component provides participants with important background material which increases their understanding and appreciation of the classroom short course. A good understanding of this material, confirmed by completion of interactive reviews, enables participants to derive maximum benefit from the short courses.
