    CBT Nuggets
    CBT Nuggets is well suited for people who need
    to learn in nuggets/small packets, business professionals on the run, and those
    who need modular content for a wide range of topics. This is also suitable for
    people/employees looking for upskilling, certification exams, or business growth.
    It is also suited to large organizations that want to upskill their workforce.
    This might not be suited for people looking for supplementary content, or people
    attending regular in-class educational/training, sessions as this provides
    comprehensive content rather than supplementary content. Also not suited for those who are looking for written materials for training like
    books, notes, ppt, etc.

    edX
    edx is really helpful for learning and growing your skills in both personal and professional aspects. It helped us learn all the business concepts which were required for our company. We chose certification after auditing a number of courses. It was definitely a terrific tool for professionals who were self-learning.

    Cons
    CBT Nuggets
    • While the trainers are good, sometimes their accent make them hard to understand.
    • More practice questions at the end that simulate the certification test.
    • Perhaps a score card that with those questions that tell you where to spend more time training.

    edX
    edX for Business seemed to be quite similiar to other competitors in terms of methodology and formats. In our case, courses themes availability were very important, because the challenge was to find relevant content to support pre-defined learning tracks. We found most of them on edX for Business catalog. The posibility to integrate them into other platforms was also an important decision factor.
