What we will be covering in this discussion:
One of the significant outgrowths from the impact of COVID-19 was the extreme focus on online training delivery. During this period, online training wasn’t an option, it was a necessity. History has shown that in periods of higher tension and pressure, individuals and organizations can quickly adapt and flourish. New techniques and adaptations have been developed, adopted, and experienced during the past 6 months and our roundtable panelists will share their experiences so attendees of this webinar can also benefit. This will be an opportunity to learn, first hand, at how online learning can be injected further into automotive training that ever before.
What we expect to cover in this online event:
- How to use (and not use) the online format in automotive education and ongoing training
- Tips for success as a student or participant in online education
- Advisement on how to successfully implement automotive online training courses
- Answers from the roundtable participants on “If you could do it all over again, what would you do?”
