CBT Nuggets and On-Demand training
I started using CBT Nuggets in my last job and suggested it for my current position. The training courses/videos are great and love that they are usually broken down to 10-15 minute segments which makes it slightly easier to squeeze in a video or two during downtime. It's great with multiple licenses to distribute accounts throughout your organization accordingly for a fraction of the cost an actual 5-day course.
- It's on-demand. You can take zero or 100 courses for the same price and at your own convenience.
- Courses are organized extremely well and instructors are great.
- You can cover a wide range of training topics - Microsoft, Networking, database, ETC.
- You can go back and re-watch videos to get a better understanding.
- Because it is on-demand, it's difficult to carve out time to dedicate to training.
- I've had trouble with following along with some of the lab exercises.
- It's rare, but videos can freeze up. You'll need to close the tab and start over.
