Blended learning
Blended learning means combining technology with face-to-face instruction as well as learning and facilitation styles. It is not about replacing facilitators with computers, but enhancing the learning experience. Blended learning is great for time poor, geographically remote learners, and organisations with training needs who may be faced with challenging training logistics.
Blended learning means combining face-to-face experience with online conferencing options, video and audio recording, webinars and enhanced eBooks. Blended learning solutions are also ideal because learners tend to acquire technical skills, and collaborative work habits that translate well back into the workplace. These skills are further embedded through practical application.
A blended learning solution is ideal for organisations and learning content if
- An improvement in quality and learner experience is sought
- Specific technical skills require informal exchange between experts
- Some outcomes are best achieved face-to-face
- Logistics of sending facilitators to remote locations is not sustainable
- An organisation does not have a knowledge management system in place
Pure eLearning
Access to qualified experts and classroom experiences may not always be possible and necessary. eLearning offers a set of solutions that address learning needs without teachers or other training experts. The quality eLearning solutions created by our team are highly engaging, geographically independent, learner driven and contain valuable feedback loops as well as being designed with state of the art instructional design principles to ensure consistently high quality outcomes.
An organisation would select eLearning modules if
- It seeks a way to complement segments of a blended learning solution
- The organisation and staff are technologically minded or need to grow quickly
- Sparing staff from office hours is uneconomical logistically
- There is a need for highly consistent learning
- The need exists for learners to periodically retake the eLearning modules
- Training rooms are not available
- The workforce is spread out geographically
- Reporting of learner performance is required

IELTS Online
Two of our flagship products IELTS Master and IELTS Express were designed for the independent learner motivated to learn about and perform well on the IELTS test.
The IELTS Master is a more comprehensive product that provides self paced learning, tips and practice followed by a full simulation of an IELTS test. IELTS Express, is a more condensed version, that focuses more on practice and simulation.
Both products are examples of learning methodologies designed for professional or semi-professional learning that requires little or no teacher input.
Similar solutions can be applied to other standardized test training or a a variety of compliance type training. Teaching content is inserted in scaffolded lessons, interspersed with periodic formative testing, culminating in an overall assessment that is computer assessed providing both student and testing authority (usually the employer) a record of the student's performance.
