Self-paced learning is not a new concept. Before the internet became widespread, many adults signed up for class room training courses that did not allow them to complete certain levels of study from the comfort of their own homes and in their own time. They had to register with a training provider and incur high training costs. But times have changed, and more trainees are turning to self-paced online learning as an option. Besides being flexible and convenient, online courses are open around the clock so that the trainees can access their course information any time of the day. They also offer a technological edge over some traditional brick-and-mortar schools and foster more interaction between instructors and students. People find that it is easier to balance work and home life by learning at their own pace and not stressing over deadlines and class schedules. Self-paced e-learning is also widely accepted by employers who want their employees to upgrade their jobs skills without taking time off work to do so. Companies are also more accepting of online trainings.
