Shikha was looking for internship opportunities, but despite constant efforts, she couldn't get one. After multiple rejections, she realized that lack of experience and skill-gap made her profile below par and was the reason for all the rejections.

Unfortunately, there are millions of students like Shikha out there. But fortunately, there is a solution to help solve this problem and that is -- online learning.

The certificate you will receive at the successful completion of the training (offline or online) will help put you a step ahead of your peers and the knowledge will help give you an in-depth understanding of the subject.

There has been a debate about online learning for some time, students often wonder if it is solving a problem or creating problems. To help you make an informed decision we will discuss both the aspects.

E-learning as a boon!

Learning has always been a long and tedious journey. Offline centers and study material usually make learning monotonous and the student tends to lose interest after a while, but online learning has made it interesting, fun, and a cakewalk.

You can relax back in your seat while the knowledge is displayed on your screen.

1. Flexibility

You will be able to learn a new skill as per your timeline while devoting as many hours in a day as you would like. The short breaks that students usually encounter during professional and academic careers and spend procrastinating can now be spent in a productive way.

2. Economical

In the case of online training, students' aim is to learn so companies do not incur any expenses in miscellaneous offline activities, and money is spent only on developing the content for the student thereby lowering the cost of training. Moreover, the time you might have spent commuting can now be saved.

3. No issue with doubt clearance too!

While learning, doubts might arise about the topic and students usually hesitate in asking questions in front of the class. In online learning, you are an anonymous user and your doubts, as frivolous, they may be, do not have to be asked in front of a class full of students.

It will help you in getting your doubts cleared without hesitation.

E-learning as bane!

E-learning has good qualities and also possesses some bad ones which cannot be omitted. Online classes save your time but they don't give you a real-time space and experience of a class! The fun, the competition, and the spirits that an actual class brings can never be felt in an online class . Sometimes they can be boring because the classes are too direct. Apart from these instant and timely questions that students used to ask whenever a doubt arose their mind has also been hit. Now the students have to either keep their questions in mind or write it somewhere to be asked later which might lose it's context if delayed.

Thus, you decide if E-learning is a boon or a bane!
