Online learning platforms have been proven to be more effective for individuals looking to further their education. In fact, a report from the University of the Potomac, shared that 77% of educators believe that online learning is just as good as traditional learning, if not better. Busy security professionals need access to education materials on their terms and when it’s convenient for them – online courses and on demand courses make it easier for them to further their education.
“The evolution of online learning over the last decade has led to a shift in the education continuum,” said Ara Burke, Senior Director and Chief Learning Officer, Pulse Secure. “Quality online learning requires leading-edge innovation in the development of digital content and state-of-the art technology to deliver a more personalised learning environment. It is not an abandonment of effective traditional learning practices, but a transition that empowers learners to design and drive their own educational needs.”
