The Mentored Learning Approach

A student begins his experience in a Mentored Learning class with knowledge assessment. By determining the student’s strengths and weaknesses in different knowledge areas, the mentor can then develop a training plan that meets the exact needs for that student.

The comprehensive training that follows the assessment includes multimedia presentations, labs, vendor-authorized courseware and a one-on-one coaching relationship with the mentor. These resources are utilized at the student's own pace.

The lab environment allows the student to work through courseware-provided labs as well as custom, real-world scenarios. These labs are student-specific, allowing their progress to be maintained through multiple sessions.

At the completion of the course, the student may choose to complete a post-training assessment. This will help the student gauge return on investment and productivity enhancement.
