The training provided by NCADD is in an online or ‘eLearning format. This has many advantages over other training options such as classroom training or DVD/CD based offerings. These advantages include:

  • Allowing students to take courses in a stress-free environment at their own pace, either all in one sitting, or in increments to suit their needs.
  • Minimizing the need for after- or off-hours classes which pull students away from not only their academic or professional responsibilities, but from their personal lives as well.
  • Reducing travel costs normally associated with training.
  • Unlike CD/DVD based training, there’s nothing to install or load onto the computer. Anyone with access to a web browser can take the training. In addition, since the training is web-based, updates are made frequently and students get access to the latest information.
