Among the various e-learning methodologies, learning through full-time virtual schools is gaining momentum in the global education market. This is mainly because of its ability to both enhance the learning experience with different types of content, such as video, audio, and simulation and facilitate real-time interactive sessions with fellow learners and trainers from related fields and other regions under one platform.
