How RCI is Different

Not your grandmother's remote learning. Some people initially reject RCI training because they think it like other synchronous training options. RCI is not “distance learning” or “eLearning” classes.

There are two major factors that make the RCI experience different:

RCI is centered on classroom instruction. As a result, the flow and feel of the class is almost exactly the same as if the instructor were standing at the front of your room.
Unlike a web seminar where you are just watching a presentation, with RCI you have a second connection into the training room that allows you to run the software for the class. This gives you the ability to follow along with the instructor and do practice labs right during the class.

The table below highlights some of the key differences between RCI and other synchronous training formats.

	Distance Learning	Remote Classroom Instruction
Instructor Presentation	Mostly one-way communication with little interaction. When combined with large class sizes, there is very little student interaction.	Interactive with students encouraged to ask questions. When combined with small class sizes, students and the instructor develop a rapport.
Labs	Conducted outside of class time. If you get busy, labs might not be attempted.	Conducted during the class. This ensures that you will have the time to do the lab.
Getting Help	Little or no “real time” assistance available. Student may be able to ask questions via email or text chat.	Instructor can see student's screen and offer assistance as issues are encountered. With speaker phones students simply speak up if they have questions.
Class Flow	Lectures up to 3 hours in duration followed by independent lab time.	Short explanation, demonstrations and questions, followed by hands-on labs with instructor assistance — just like a regular instructor-led class.
Class Size	Can go as high as 40 to 60 participants.	Can go as high as 16. Typically no more than 6 remote students in a class. Average class size is under 10.
Interruptions	If training is conducted at your workplace, you may be subject to interruptions.	RCI training is offered in our classroom facilities making you less susceptible to interruptions by co-workers.
Meeting Other Students	If training is conducted at your workplace or home, you will not be able to meet other students.	Even though an instructor might not be present in your classroom, you may have other students seated beside you, and you will certainly have interaction with students at other locations and of course the class instructor.
