Many people wish they had time to expand their skill sets with additional training. Many large universities often offer night courses for professionals seeking to expand in their careers. But these courses can be costly, and many professionals find it difficult to be in the classroom at night when that causes them to miss out on family time. Many public adult education programs also offer professional training courses, but class times can be very inconvenient. In the past, SilkWeb has not made single courses available to individuals. Sadly, many employers do not use professional training programs to improve employees’ skills. This left many employees without a way to expand professionally.
SilkWeb is responding to the need for accessible, affordable professional development and is now offering online courses to individuals. This means that anybody can decide when it is a convenient time for professional development. No longer is it necessary to miss precious evening time with the family in order to be in a professional development class.
SilkWeb makes it easy to pay for and download selected courses when it is convenient for the student.
This is also a great resource for entrepreneurs and small business owners who don’t need to train a lot of people but need the same skills that CEO’s of large corporations use to run their companies. PR for Newbies—A Step by Step Guide to Publicity for Small Businesses is an affordable way for new business owners to learn how to effectively and inexpensively create publicity and stretch a small advertising budget. Train the Trainer offers human resource employees exciting new skills and methods to be more effective at training employees. And Jobing Smarter is an inexpensive course for the many people currently searching for work. Jobing Smarter teaches the student how to write resumes and cover letters, as well as interview skills that will get results.
Many employers want employees who are already trained in workplace health and safety subjects such as preventing sexual harassment or HIPAA requirements. By completing an individual e-learning course from SilkWeb, the applicant can proudly say that he or she has completed the course. He’ll be better able to answer interview questions regarding such subjects as well, giving him an edge over other applicants and making him a preferred candidate.
Whether you are seeking a job, work in HR, the front desk, or run a small business, SilkWeb offers an individual course to expand your professional skills and help you get the job or promotion you long for. Unlike university taught professional development courses and public adult education courses, SilkWeb’s
individual e-learning courses are affordable and can be taken on the student’s schedule. SilkWeb makes professional development easy and accessible.
