eLearning Portal

Technology is advancing at such a rapid rate that the average user can barely keep pace with it. Chip speed multiplying at the rate of Moore's Law, new software creates new threats, leaving you, the user overwhelmed and frustrated.

What value then, does technology hold if we don't know what to use it for or how to use it? Conventional technology training has failed us. Academics teach us the theory behind it, and technology courses teach us how to use it. But no training teaches both - theory and use - while incorporating the real world use and benefits. No training until now, that is!

In 1937, the classic book by Napoleon Hill titled, "Think and Grow Rich" recognized:

"The 'missing link' in all systems of education may be found in the failure of educational institutions to teach their students how to organize and use knowledge after they acquire it."

Further in the same chapter Hill states:

"Knowledge has no value except that which can be gained from its application toward some worthy end."

That's the approach behind each course taught at the MICE Training & Technology™ eLearning Portal. We teach you the theory behind the technology (the why it works) while you work with it in a "hands-on" approach (the how it works). This method of learning combined with the real world examples of use gives you the total picture.

You leave our courses knowing which skill, software, or technology solution to use for the day-to-day problems you need to solve at home, at work, and in your interaction with society.

Whether it's through self-guided or full instructor-led courses, you're never alone. You have access to other students and the instructor with live chat in each classroom.

Our eLearning Portal uses state-of-the-art Open Source course management software where you have access to the rich, full learning environment. We've incorporated the various learning styles so you can hear, see, and experience what you learn. You have access to other students through a course discussion forum that is monitored by your instructor even in self-directed courses.

We're using the full Web 2.0 capacities of our new website and our software to bring you interactive flash tests and simulated environments, MP3 audio and video, as well as text and graphic images.

It is our goal to become a fully accredited, accepted online learning portal with the US Department of Education within the next five years.
