Opportunity for Schools to Register More Online Pre-licensing, Continuing Education, and For-Credit Students
|
Three factors are coming together to increase online course sales:
1 – The increasing acceptance of online learning.
2 – An increasingly informed consumer of online learning solutions.
3 – The escalating cost of attending classroom delivered courses.
How to increase student enrollments:
Being a Reseller of pre-licensing and Continuing Education courses-
If you are not a partner with OLT already, your school can become one. Once you have an agreement with OnLine Training, your school representative and an OLT
webmaster work together to set up a website similar to this at the OLT
site at no additional charge. The webpage we create for your school tracks your enrollments.
OLT provides course descriptions and material about the courses online at the OLT website.
To become a reseller, complete the reseller
registration/order form. If approved to be a reseller, your school will be placed in our system and we will contact you to establish the level of reselling you want to do. We will then send you a reseller agreement for your review, approval, and signature.
Being a Reseller Recipient -
A number of commercial resellers routinely approach
OLT seeking to enroll their students in our courses. When this occurs we prefer to pass students
to colleges when possible. While most commercial resellers enroll just a few to several students a month,
some commercial resellers are enrolling over 500 students a year in OLT courses. We have noted that
some colleges are providing volume discounts to commercial clients. If you would be interested in establishing
a “discount” relationship with commercial resellers in your area, please let us know.

partnerships to add more students to your rolls by taking OLT courses, contact us for more information by

Incorporating OLT For-Credit Courses in College Academic Programs-
OLT is the parent company of Redding College. Redding College has designed and developed all the courses necessary for students to complete two-year Associate degree programs. Redding College is licensed by the Florida Department of Education Commission on Independent Education to offer these programs and courses, all of which are online. Your school can incorporate these courses in your programs as part of your academic offerings. To see the programs and course listings click here. To discuss the opportunity to make these courses available, contact us by clicking here. |
- IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OLT's COURSES:
With the increase in acceptance of online courses has come a swarm of course providers
each positioning themselves in the market place for success. These course providers typically sell through
commercial resellers. Most simply offer a lower price product. Most simply teach the test, or seek to make
the course as appealing and easy to complete as possible. OLT focuses our effort on making our online courses
as effective as possible knowing that the pedagogy we use often means focusing students to work harder and learn better.
Most, if not all of the competition generates a course, receives approval and begins offering the course but has a
limited ability to keep their course up to date. Here at OLT we follow a well published instructional design
model that is iterative by design. That is to say, student feedback and changes in state law or the industry
can be reflected in literally daily and weekly changes to our courses. Each change is authored by a subject
matter expert and is reviewed before being incorporated in the online course.
In the past we have published in peer reviewed forum on the topic of instructional design, factors associated with
increased cognitive transfer of knowledge, adult motivation and learning applications, online students, marketing
online courses, program management and most recently pass rates.
If you are interested in receiving and or discussing OLT’s research, please let us know.
OnLine Training offers Pre-Licensing,
Exam Prep (which we call PassPrep), and Continuing Education courses. To see our full range of course offerings, go to our home page. OLT courses also boast higher scores in the courses
compared to courses taken in a classroom or college setting. For more information click here.

Increasingly we are being asked about
pass rates. Dr. Redding has been publishing on this topic for the past year. The self-reported pass rate
(student reported) for OLT courses is above 97%. The instructional design indicates that online OLT students out
perform classroom based students by more than a standard deviation. The State of Florida reports an overall pass
rate of about 42%. The latest published provider pass rate has several OLT partner colleges with pass rates of 100%.
Others have lower pass rates. We note that OLT’s overall pass rate is 62% while Florida State College at Jacksonville
has a published pass rate of 50% and Indian River College has a published pass rate of 30%. If you would like to talk
about pass rates, please let us know.
