5.4 Do I need to travel to a training centre?
In the beginning, DATAC trainers would fly all over Canada training collectors and technicians from coast to coast. Unfortunately, it became all too apparent that because Canada is so vast that the cost of travelling was too much for our members to bear. Utilizing new technologies for online course delivery and webcams for mock testing we were able to create our courses to be taken from a distance without the need for an on-site trainer. This means that all you need now is a device that connects to the internet, and you’re good to go!
