These seminars have been developed for individuals who would like to benefit from a Target Learning seminar but are unable to attend our (in-person) programs. Our online seminars will provide you much of the same information offered through our on-site seminars. But that doesn't mean you'll be stranded in a sea of information.
Our online seminars are completely interactive and allow you to "talk" with one of our instructors at any time during the program. After all, at Target Learning we always show you how to learn more efficiently and effectively using your preferred learning and thinking style. So if the techniques we present in the seminar don't make sense, or you feel they don't fit your particular way of thinking, let us know and we'll respond within 48 hours with specific learning strategies that fit your style.
How it Works
Once you enroll, you will receive 24/7 online access to the seminar through any Internet connection (we will provide you with a username and password). The seminar is entirely self-paced and you will have access to the program (and a Target Learning instructor) for 6 months.
This seminar doesn't contain any flashy graphics or animation so your seminar pages will appear fast, and printing a page will be quick and easy. Think of it like buying a book and having a direct communication link with the author if any questions arise.
The Benefit
Our students have reported that our learning techniques seem effortless when applied. In reality, the techniques just seem easy because they were using their most natural (and therefore most comfortable) way to learn and apply information. Therefore, if after completing one of our online seminars (and applying our strategies), you don't feel the same way, please let us know which techniques simply don't work for you. We will be happy to provide you with free advice even after you complete the seminar.
The Seminars ▼
| Target Reading for Business - Online: A Web-Based Seminar - $35 The reading methods we learned as children were designed to help us comprehend highly structured materials, in a predictable and controlled learning environment. But as working adults, we are faced with volumes of complex, poorly structured reading material. Combine this with work and family responsibilities, and that 20-page chapter in your school textbook becomes pleasure-reading.
This online seminar will show you how to use your preferred learning and thinking style to read all types of material efficiently and effectively. Specifically, you will learn how to: ● Improve your critical reading and thinking skills
● Improve your concentration skills while reading
● Increase your overall reading speed
● Improve your overall comprehension
● Find key information quickly
● Decipher complex reading material
● Develop time management plans for your reading assignments
● Ensure better retention and recall of everything you read Click Here for a free (no obligation) online tour of this seminar. |

| Target Reading for College - Online: A Web-Based Seminar - $25 What is the very first thing you usually do once you're given a reading assignment in a textbook? Do you count the number of pages to read, and silently grumble about the teacher who assigned that many pages? Next, do you look to see how many pictures and graphs are in the chapter, because that means fewer words on a page? If so, you have already made college reading more difficult. Instead of looking for key information that might be on a future test - or helpful for a research paper - you tend to approach the reading as a major chore, something to get out of the way. This is called "passive reading" and it always leads to daydreaming, nodding off, and what we call "page amnesia" (when you read an entire page then instantly forget what you just read). This is not efficient reading, and definitely not effective reading. In this seminar we will show you how to make college reading easy through a variety of flexible techniques that conform to your preferred learning and thinking style. Specifically, you will learn how to: ● Read textbooks faster with better comprehension, retention and recall
● Improve your concentration while reading (avoid daydreaming)
● Take concise and useful notes while reading
● Find the type of information that will be on future tests
● Shorten amount of time required to complete a reading assignment
● Read all types of information more critically
● Quickly and accurately find key information in all types of materials Click Here for a free (no-obligation) online tour of this seminar. |

Target Memory - Online
● Understand how short and long-term memory works
● Learn how to recall "lost" memories
● Learn how to lock new information into your long-term memory
● Learn how to improve your concentration skills
Most memory improvement programs tend to provide generic (one-size-fits-all) techniques that work for some, but not for everyone. This online seminar does not involve complex mnemonics or even those tedious association drills. Instead, you will learn how to use your own personal learning strengths to improve your short and long-term memory.
Target Thinking - Online
● Learn how to think quickly and clearly under pressure
● Learn how to develop creative and extraordinary ideas from ordinary information
● Learn how to critically assess the value of new and old information
● Learn how to think outside "the box"
Many creative thinking programs require elaborate formulas and multiple steps to "open" a person's mind to alternative possibilities. For some, this approach can be very effective, but it is not always very efficient. For others, following complex formulas or taking numerous steps to reach a creative thought is a bit overdone - not to mention it takes all the fun out of being creative. There's nothing fancy or exclusionary about being creative, it's not reserved for artists or special people. Creativity is a part of everyone's natural cognitive process but since everyone thinks differently (based on genetics, background, environment, personality, etc.) you need to take advantage of your own personal way of thinking to stir those creative juices. This online seminar will help you recognize and exploit your natural learning strengths to become a more critical and creative thinker in all aspects of your life.
