What is online dual training?
Online alternance training combines online theoretical courses and in-company practice. This model is particularly suitable for people wishing to develop professional skills while benefiting from paid employment during their studies.
For example, it is possible to enroll in an alternating HR bachelor’s degree, which allows training in the human resources trades while following a programme 100 % online. This flexible format is suitable for both students and adults undergoing retraining.
Why choose an online dual training?
Online work-linked training offers several advantages:
- Flexibility : Learners can organize their schedule according to their needs, which facilitates the reconciliation between studies and work.
- Lack of geographical constraints : No matter where you live, it is possible to take online courses and work in a local company.
- Personalized support : Many organizations offer individualized follow-up through coaches or mentors to guide students on their journey.
- Coverage of training costs : Alternately, registration fees are often covered by the employer or by public schemes.
- Development of autonomy : Online dual training promotes autonomy and self-discipline, skills prized in the professional world and beneficial for their future careers.
- Use of new technologies : eLearning takes advantage of the latest educational technologies, providing an interactive and engaging learning experience. The use of a variety of digital tools also prepares students for the increasingly digitalised working environment.
Three sectors that lend themselves well to online alternation
- Digital marketing
Another fast-growing sector, digital marketing is very well integrated into distance learning. Students can learn how to use digital tools, analyse data or manage online campaigns while working on concrete projects in their host company. - IT and web development
IT and web development are areas where distance learning is particularly effective. Alternates can code, test and deploy applications or websites while learning the latest online technologies. - Human resources
The field of human resources is also very suitable for online alternation. Jobs such as recruitment manager, personnel administrative manager or HR manager require solid theoretical skills (labour law, payroll management, management) and immediate implementation in the company.
