Education and Training
New Technologies can contribute towards improving the skills training of persons, regarding aspects related both with their professional and with their personal activity.
Some of the questions that are raised are quality of one against the other, distance/classroom learning and how it can be applied to the various disciplines
The main advantages of virtual education are the reduction of costs to provide courses for more participants than the traditional number in a classroom, savings on seminars and involving highly decentralised companies (such as banks) and flexible schedules, which is an extremely important factor as it allows the student to programme the course in the best possible way and the interaction that the courses generate, awaking the interest of the student and helping people who are shy about expressing their opinions in a group to be more active in the classroom thanks to the discussion forum and other means of participation.
