We have designed the VIDL Network to target the interests of those seeking know-how in the applied sciences. We understand that there is great interest today to better oneself personally and in business. We understand that the amount of time devoted to learning is small. Today due to busy lives there is only a “sliver of time” available for learning. VIDL Network has amassed a group of experts in specific fields to developed on-line course modules embedded with real-data examples. These are coupled with projects using real-data to accomplish viable learning. Our web-based modules teach techniques to understand the applications of the science and the access to real-data based projects to allow experiencing the use of these techniques. As a result, one absorbs both theory and gains a practical application of what was learned. In addition, VIDL Network enables one-on-one, real-time interaction with the educator. We offer a ready-accessible 24/7 web site www.vidlnetwork.com for individual subscribers. Customized Module Bundles are available upon request. Micro-sites can be designed for university or corporate training.
