As our economy, technical capabilities, and job demands continue to grow, it may not be long before the majority of our work is done remotely. Technology, paired with the savvy and know-how of most individuals in today’s workforce, has come to a place where we are using online communications to boost our productivity. In light of these developments, online training and education have become charged for success for an increasing segment of the workforce.
