ESI’s Virtual Classroom

ESI’s Virtual Classroom takes the convenience of our popular e-Training delivery and combines it with the interactivity and immediacy of a live, classroom course. With this new, interactive delivery option, you can train in a group from the convenience of your office.

Virtual Classroom courses are divided into a series of modules, which allow for flexible scheduling options. Currently ESI is offering Managing Projects to the public in convenient one-, four- and six-week options. For those interested in bringing Virtual Classroom to their organization, we can work with you to adjust the schedule based on your organization's needs.

How ESI’s Virtual Classroom Works

• Communication
  Students communicate with their instructor and collaborate with other students live via microphone and text-chat.
• Polling Techniques
  Instructors can use instant polling techniques, such as multiple-choice questions, to help spark discussion or determine if students understand key concepts.
• Breakout Rooms
  Students are divided into virtual breakout rooms for exercises and case studies that promote team building and group learning.
• Offline Work
  Students are required to complete assignments and exercises outside of the classroom to help them further retain and apply new information.
