NHI Training Courses
Training Formats
NHI offers a wide variety of transportation-related training courses. These courses
are presented in a variety of delivery formats, including Instructor-led training
(ILT), Web-conference training (WCT), and Web-based training (WBT). Select the headings
below to learn more about each type of training:
Instructor-led Training (ILT)
These courses are held in-person and led by an instructor. In order to open a session,
it must be requested to be hosted by a transportation organization. Once the session
is opened, other individuals may sign up for that session (based on availability).
Web-conference Training (WCT)
Like an ILT, a WCT session has an instructor or faciliatator and must be requested
by a transportation organization. The difference is that a WCT takes place online
in a virtual Adobe Connect classroom and can be accessed from any computer with
an Internet connection via the My Training page. Although course participants may
access a WCT course from almost anywhere in the world, these courses are scheduled
to occur at a specific time and consist of live events.
Web-based Training (WBT)
Like WCT courses, a WBT course is also located online and can be accessed from any
computer with an Internet connection via the My Training page. WBTs are self-paced
and are not led by an instructor. Instead, they are designed for individual training
and reference. You can access a WBT at any time and return to it as many times as
you wish, although the final exams can only be completed once.
Blended
Certain "blended" courses may combine two or three of the above methods (for example,
a course may have a Web-based component that must be completed before the instructor-led
component).
