LEARNING RESOURCES:

  • E- Classrooms: Also referred to as Webinars. Hope Training College of Australia feels it is important to keep engaged with the issue after learners have obtained some information through e-presentations. Therefore, we have an E-Classroom for the convenience of the students. The E-Classroom is a recorded video of a classroom trainer-led presentation. It has been observed that learners who have seen an online presentation session before attending the practical session exhibit more engagement and interest in the subject. Hope Training College in Australia has experienced a significant good impact from this.
  • E-Books - Hope Training College of Australia has uploaded a digital copy of the learning guide to our web portal, giving the student greater studying freedom. The flip books may be read on learners' smart devices, such as phones, tablets, or laptops, allowing them to study whenever and anywhere they choose. Hope Training College of Australia also has the provision and will supply a physical copy of books upon request from a learner.
  • E-SIMULATED:- This part contains many videos of role plays and other subject-related information. This segment prepares the learner for performance-based training by having them perform in a simulated setting, which helps them perform better when they go on Vocational Work Placement.
