I remember that during the epidemic last year, the conversion rate of many online courses was very high, because everyone was idle at home during that time, and there was no worry of grabbing food. Buy an online course It's still good to hear.
However, due to the epidemic this year, many people are tight on money. There is definitely a need to buy courses, and the demand for learning is always there. Even for high-level courses with four-digit or even five-digit prices, many people still want Hesitate.
I saw a big V mentioned in an article: Nowadays, many novice courses on the market have been converted into high-priced courses, at least four digits. It feels like most of them are just cutting leeks.
I want to share something with you today. I have learned so many lessons over the years, but I have never been cut off from a leek.
In fact, I started online learning when online courses first started in 2015. On the one hand, working mothers with children know that it is not easy to go to an offline get out of class. This is not only a matter of cost. I think You have to take a leave of absence from your family to study, either serious certification training, MBA, or some leadership training and coach training, which are basically not well understood.
That online class just makes up for this. For me personally, online classes are fantastic.
Firstly, the cost is much cheaper than offline. If you study in another place, you also save the cost of air tickets and hotel accommodation; secondly, the study time is too free, many courses have replays, you can choose a suitable time to study alright. Also, after studying, there will be Q&A and tutoring in the community, unlike offline classes which end after the get out of class.
However, in recent years, we have also discovered that many online courses have begun to transform from single courses to small-class training camps, that is, advanced courses.
In fact, advanced courses are not expensive at first, only a few hundred yuan, or more than a thousand at most. In the past two years, the prices of some private training classes have begun to rise, ranging from a few thousand to tens of thousands.
Firstly, some advanced courses are indeed the essence of the teacher's courses and become more systematic. Secondly, advanced courses pay more attention to one-on-one practical practice, and the teachers and teaching assistants will put a lot of energy into them. However, I have not taken all the advanced courses on the market, and I cannot generalize.
You asked me if there are any good courses on the market now? My answer is: Definitely!
And everyone’s learning needs are always there. Regardless of whether there is an epidemic or not, the concept of lifelong learning is gradually taking root in people’s hearts, and good courses can also benefit everyone a lot. If this demand is there, the product will definitely always exist.
So how do you consider whether to sign up for advanced courses?
Below I would like to share a few points based on my personal experience in studying and enrolling for classes over the years. (Purely personal opinion, for reference only)

What can you learn from public welfare courses?
Friends who like online learning know that many high-level courses are converted from public welfare courses into advanced classes. In the end, whether you sign up for advanced courses or not, the quality of public welfare courses is very important.
I have not taken many advanced courses on annual reports. I have attended many public welfare courses. To be honest, many times I feel that the content is too shallow, or I feel that I have not heard anything, so naturally I will not consider continuing.
However, there are also some public welfare courses that are very rewarding. Although it only lasts a few days, I can always find 1-2 very useful methods to use in the course. I really want to continue learning systematically and will consider applying for the course. Advanced courses.
Of course, some friends are worried that after so much practical information is taught in the public welfare class, there will be nothing left to teach in the advanced class. In fact, from my personal learning experience, I feel that advanced courses are more like learning the entire system of this teacher.
If you can learn a lot of useful information in the public welfare class, you can actually consider studying systematically.

How is the teacher’s status?
There is another very important point. What is the status of this teacher?
There is a saying: If the teacher who teaches wealth class has not achieved financial freedom himself, then there is no need to read it. If the teacher who teaches a relationship course has a messed up relationship, then there is no need to consider it.
Because most course teachers now appear in person, or even live broadcast.
is like a teacher who teaches practical cultivation. If you are in a state that you have already lived, with harmonious family relationships, abundant wealth, good health and good courses, then you will naturally have a lot of useful information to share. .
But if the teacher himself is and lacks , the relationship is not handled well (I have seen some teachers scolding volunteers in offline classes until they cry), and the financial situation is tight, it is really necessary to continue Take a look.
To be honest, good courses nowadays really require a discerning eye. Also, it really depends on fate. The status of the course teacher is also very revealing. A good teacher shows a very comfortable state. Of course, he is not pretending, nor does he give people the feeling of being drunk, but is naturally comfortable.
It can be seen that the teacher has integrated the curriculum system and internalized it into his own system, and then went to teach and solve doubts.
This kind of knowledge can be shared without relying on rote memorization of the syllabus. Just like the story of a very famous speaker and his driver, his driver could recite the speaker's course content backwards and forwards, but he could never tell the speaker's state of mind.
Of course, it depends on the teacher's status, and you can't just look at the photos posted, you still have to feel it yourself based on experience.

What is the promotion model?
I have seen advanced courses with the best promotion model, but they don’t promote much.
One is that the quality of the course is really good, but it may not be promoted very much. The internal quota has been grabbed by old students, and the few spots that are released will disappear instantly.
In addition, the teacher will repeatedly emphasize that the price of advanced courses is there after all. If you have financial difficulties, please do not take it, as it may have an impact on your current life.
If you encounter a course that promises you, hurry up and sign up. You will definitely make money after completing the course, and you will definitely achieve financial freedom. There are many guarantees and promises in the course, so you must be cautious and cautious (of course I can’t kill you with one shot) ). But I have never encountered such a course.

Listen to what other students have to say
In addition, it is also very useful to listen to what other students have learned. Of course, some people may say, what if they are all shills? This also exists.
Of course, in many of the courses I have taken, many students will sincerely share what they have gained. It is really impossible to fake the feeling of emotion after listening. If such emotional things can be fake, , then there is really no trust at all.
A good course will really have many students sharing it spontaneously. It is not like assigning tasks, you say a few words to me, that person says a few words to me, but it is revealed naturally.
Among the advanced courses I have taken, the course has the highest conversion rate of over 80%, which shows that the course is really good.
Finally, I would like to give you some suggestions:
1. You must study according to your own financial situation. Never get a loan or a credit card. There is really no need to study with a heavy burden. It will bring a lot later. trouble. Only consider it unless you happen to have enough money for studying on hand.
2. Don’t have any expectations for the course. In fact, if you listen to some teachers more than once, the more you look forward to it, the more pressure you may have and it will be difficult to continue learning. Because, in most course learning groups, the change is always only 1%.
For example, I studied the Enneagram in my early years, and the teacher in that class taught very well. However, at the final graduation ceremony, only one student changed a lot because she described doing the homework as if she had been struck by lightning. , I felt suddenly enlightened, which was an epiphany.
It was her own fate that she met the class she needed at this stage. Other students, including me, also felt that the class was quite good, but they had just heard it.
3. If you feel that the course is rewarding, I really recommend you to study this teacher’s system systematically.
I remember a senior sister in a study group shared that she would not hesitate to sign up for any advanced course given by this teacher, because the teacher’s course was a system, and she felt that she had not learned it thoroughly, and every time she finished it, she would not hesitate to sign up. There are different gains, and the tuition fees have long been earned back. That’s why I made up my mind to study systematically with this teacher.
Of course, good courses and good teachers are worth following for a while.
With a good course content, you will learn less and less, and you will eventually be able to integrate what you have learned and apply it to your daily life.
Today's learning is really not about floating in the sky, but about applying what you have learned. If you can use a method and adhere to long-termism, it can also bring about very big changes.
In life, you still need to have a lifelong learning mentality, so that you will not rest on your laurels and set limits on yourself. Knowledge is always the ark that can help people ride the wind and waves when encountering the stormy waves of life.
