Virtual Learning – Workforce SLU

Welcome to Live-Online, Instructor-Led Training

Saint Louis University Workforce Center has been delivering live-online training since its inception in 2013. Our live-online classrooms create an environment of connection and real-time participation. Classes meet through the top video-conferencing platforms (WebEx or Zoom) and use a Learning Management System (Canvas) for a seamless experience.
