In the Present fast-paced world, people are facing challenges concerning keeping themselves always with the up to date technologies or industry changes. When it comes to the IT industry, it is becoming crucial as people with continuous learning are fit for upcoming projects rather than others who don't update.
Due to heavy workloads and other restrictions people are largely opting for remote or online classes where some choose for online training companies and others want for trainers through known friends referrals or online platforms like UrbanPRO. I am trying to put forward my thoughts of Dos and Dont's in remote learning which are my observations in the last seven years of training resources for job eligible.
Do's:
1) Ensure that you set your requirement and background honestly with the trainer so that trainer can plan the right learning method to suit your need. (Especially people planning to switch jobs, people having gaps in employment and Women Planning to enter into the career after the gap)
2) Listen to the trainer carefully about his suggestions for your training and validate if that meets your expectations and then decide. Most of the trainers here are experienced people in Industry with multiple skills and knows which is in demand and which is not.
3) Plan your learning use case based so that you will learn techniques to apply rather than to work. When you can apply, you will understand it better to justify various internal concepts. Whereas if you look forward to work, you will limit to the basic concepts which meet the requirement to finish your work.
4) Even though people can opt for remote online learning, it is good to bring online training to near-real-time direct practice virtually so that trainer and student interact with each other better and can implement watch and teach mode. If it is just screen sharing training, then the effectiveness of training will be only 20 to 30%.
Dont's:
1) Training is to Improve your knowledge and don't assume that after training you will get the job for sure.
2) Avoid thinking that if I learn a specific technology, I can get a job with high salary immediately.
3) Don't stop practising.
4) Don't rely on single technology.
5) Do not hesitate to ask questions even though you feel they are silly. (This I have observed largely in female students and people who have gaps in career, where they hesitate to ask the question because of impression one will have.)
