Online Training Simplified, Organized and Easy Online Videos to Watch!
Written by Siotha on February 29, 2008 – 11:39 am -Have you noticed how unorganized training sites feel when they have hundreds and thousands of videos. It could take 3 or 4 minutes to get through them. So, Jeremy, my team, and I have been feverishly working on making xTrain better… Just take a look at this quick intro to the site…. (Note: Please login to xTrain before trying the following! It’s free and won’t cost you anything just to sign in and easy to watch the free classes). We’ve worked really hard to make our site logical for the different types of artists - photographer courses are in photography - designer courses are listed in graphic design - internet marketing courses are only in internet marketing sections. How cool is that - we’ve designed the site - so that you choose your training by passion - then by subject - then by topic!
