๐ What is a workshop?
A workshop is a live training session, scheduled on a specific date, intended for one or more participants.
Workshops allow you to train your learners in synchronous sessions that can be led by a trainer.ย
๐ฉโ๐ซ Workshops especially simplify the planning of your face-to-face training:ย
Thus, deploy with the Mayday Academy a blended learning by combining your face-to-face training with your e-learning modules to be completed independently.
Take advantage of the benefits of each modality to offer a more flexible, engaging, and effective learning experience!
