INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL TRAINING AND WEBINARS
The invention of the internet is arguably among the best things humans have achieved. The internet has modified our way of living in more ways than we can imagine, from easy access to entertainment, finding jobs and getting news updates, to chatting to your friends and family, and researching any interests that you might have.
Since Covid, there is also a boom in TechEd, online teaching, training, and learning.
The internet can provide millions of opportunities to people if they have the right tools (e.g.Smart Phones, Laptop, Tablet, connection). In this era of technological evolution, new ideas and inventions linked to the use of the internet rise daily. Applications and softwares that make life easier are laid down, built up and innovated. Moving forward, one of the benefits of the internet is how it makes education more accessible and trouble-free.
And so, Digital Training and Webinars became a trend.
For starters, Digital Training and Webinars are also called eLearning and make effective use of technology. This type of training fits into a busy person’s schedule and gives them the luxury of progressing through training at their own rate. Moreover, travel is unnecessary and could help save money and time.
If you are an planning to establish yourself as a freelancer but want to enhance your skill first, there are various sites on the internet you can start your training:
- SkillShare – is an online learning community with thousands of classes for creative and curious people, on topics including illustration, design, photography, video, freelancing, and more.
- The Futur – The Futur is an online education platform loaded with content, courses, and tools to help you build better design skills and better creative businesses.

Freelancing is a competitive field, and without face-to-face interactions, it can be disproportionately difficult to discern what employers want from you. So it is important to fuel yourself with skills that are necessary for freelancers to help you stand out in the gig economy.
