Technical Training

Asigra training classes are held at our Toronto Training Center. 

Our instructors set high goals and facilitate learning experiences that result in high levels of rigor and relevance for all learners. They are committed to the following: 

  • Help participants develop skills with Asigra software. Work together to solve highly complex exercises that require learners utilize their existing technology skills with newly acquired knowledge.
  • Engage participants with hands-on exercises in solving real-world problems. Working Asigra Technical Trainingin small groups or individually during the training session in a simulated "real world" lab, learners will apply skills that will be retained through the practical exercises.
  • Add relevance to the learning. By bringing real-life context and technology to the curriculum, instructors encourage learners to bring real-life issues to the classroom.
  • Meet the needs of learners with varying learning styles. Multiple intelligences engage all learners in the process of researching and solving a problem and then communicating the solutions. This active learning takes advantage of different learning styles thus giving individuals a chance to excel.
