To create buzz and repeat customers, your online
classes will have to be more than just text on a
screen. There is a significant difference in the
quality of student/instructor interactivity the
providers of online classes offer. All Growth Strategies classes
are highly interactive. We strive for a high-touch
environment between student and instructor.
Growth Strategies does not use
teaching assistants or clerical staff to monitor our
classrooms. Each instructor is a highly qualified
professional with real life experience in the
course topic. Our instructors are online every day
and available for live video conferencing. The lessons include a variety of
technologies for engaging students interactively, including, audio presentations,
and
video presentations, interactive slide/audio
presentations, home work assignments.
Test drive one of our classes and see for
yourself.
But don't take our word for it! Here is what one of your peers thought about the difference!

Teaching on the
Internet course |
Hi Gary,
I just finished your Teaching on the Internet course, and wanted to make some comments that don't fit on the evaluation form. As I mentioned on that form, I have also in the last few months finished taking a course from WebCT and two courses from Ed2Go. I suggested to both WebCT and Ed2Go that they require their instructors to take your course! Yes, yours really was that much better.
Both of the Ed2Go courses were just downloaded "books" -- boring, not very well organized, one of them really badly written. The WebCT course was just a set of downloaded PowerPoint presentations. And both of them have discussion boards that are really awkward to use, so their discussions just don't get off the ground. You really are much better -- and yes, you may quote me on that.
Besides, I have now taken 2 of your courses, and watched over the shoulder of a friend taking one. Liked them all! Very selfishly, I would like more courses!!!
Thanks again.

Hosting our classes is simple. Give it a try. Just clip and paste
course
descriptions into your next catalog. You
choose the fee your students will pay for each
course. When a student
enrolls, send us their name and email address . . .
you collect the fee as usual. At the conclusion of
the class we will send you an itemized wholesale
invoice and you retain the profit. That's all
there is to it! No complicated contracts or
technology to fuss with, no
upfront investment or financial commitments.

Hundreds of educational organizations have chosen to offer
Growth Strategies online classes. If you have
tried online classes and were disappointed, or if
you have never offered online classes because you
fear that online classes are "ho, hum" and don't measure up to
traditional face-to-face classes, it is time to take
a new look!
