The debate over MOOCs rages on: will they replace continuing education? For some people, opting for online courses as a learning option is a total no-brainer.

Yes, some folks like the interaction that goes on in an actual classroom. But perhaps you’re an on-the-go professional with little time to spare between work and family time. Or you’re vying for a career that’s often more versed in real-world experience, like coding or design. In cases like these, you may prefer slotting in the learning on your own time (and paying a lot less in the process).

While there are a ton of learning platforms to choose from, here’s a highly recommended one: Virtual Training Company. Its library of online learning materials is massive — over 1,000 courses — and for a limited time, you can get lifetime access to all courses for just $79.

Describing the entire range of topics covered by VTC’s courses is a heady feat, but we’ll try. Itching to become a developer? Take your pick of available coding courses and dive in with HTML5, JavaScript, Ruby on Rails, and more. Or if you want to get started as a designer, you can opt instead for courses ranging from UX/UI principles to basic graphic design tutorials. Other must-know tech topics the VTC courses encompass: animation, page layouts, MySQL, data management — the list goes on.

The VTC platform also offers video tutorials on industry-standard software from big-name publishers: Apache, Core, FileMaker, Dreamweaver, Flash, you name it. If you need to get up to speed on a specific program for work, it’s likely you’ll find it there. 

And if you’re serious about adding some extra flair to your résumé, you also have your pick of certification training courses, ranging from MCSE to CompTIA. These are industry-recognized certifications that show prospective employers you’re not just serious about your work — you’re also a total pro at it.

This is a great one-time investment for a lifetime of learning on virtually any tech skill you choose. A lifetime subscription to Virtual Training Company normally goes for $2,500, but grab it now for just $79.
