Before COVID-19, only 8% of the workforce worked remotely. A new Gallup found that 56% of U.S. workers were "always" or "sometimes" working remotely in January 2021. It looks like remote work (or at least having the option to work remotely) will no longer be a "trend" but an expectation once the pandemic has passed.

Professional education has advanced from the days when everyone sat in a conference room and listened to boring lectures they promptly forgot by the time the class was over. Technology has transformed our ability to craft more engaging and personalized learning strategies that help learners retain more knowledge. In this post, we'll discuss why the personalization aspect is so important and what some methods are for achieving it.

Now that virtual training has become the new normal, we’re excited to announce the release of a stronger integration between BenchPrep and Zoom Meetings. This integration will allow you to quickly and easily create and manage virtual instructor-led training (VILT) sessions from within the BenchPrep platform.
