STA Training Methodology:

Our training methodology, designed by our team of Instructional Designers, Instructors and Software Engineers, is based on modern concepts of Adult Education. A perfect balance between theory and practice followed by continuous student support is applied to all our programs. Find below the values and beliefs that shape our training methods:

• Supported Open Learning Concept: Supported Open Learning means that STA understands that the 21st century corporate student cannot give up their daily activities while updating their skills. Based on that concept, STA will try its best to allow students to make better use of their learning time while still interacting with their Instructors / Subject Matter Expert. 

• Targeting Individual Learning Styles:  every single student has a unique learning style that must be properly identified and addressed prior and during classes.

• Sharing Real-World Experiences:  students must be exposed to challenging and real-world scenarios in order to develop problem-solving skills rather than just having to "fill out the blanks or use copy and paste mechanisms" hands-on labs.

• Instructors as Facilitators: Instructors should play the role of learning facilitators rather than just using old/traditional transmission-based approach (known as Instructor-centered approach).

• Using Learning Objects (LOs): It is part of our methodology to use a variety of media (printed, audio, video, case-studies, real-world code analysis, diagrams, internet resources) in addition to printed-only material.

• Learning how to Learn: Scaffolding student independence and fostering autonomous learning behavior are critical skills in the IT field which requires great dosages of self-directness so IT professionals can keep up with new technologies, which requires great dosages of self-directness so IT professionals can keep up with new technologies.

• Providing Student Support: As a company founded by seasoned software engineers and formal educators, STA methodology recognizes the importance of being there for our students when they need to put recently acquired skills into practice to accomplish on-the-job tasks. Our students feel more confident knowing that they will have STA to count on after courses via chats, email or phone calls.
