You can take live online job training classes from anywhere in the U.S. with The Ayangbah Foundation. Every class we offer, from Microsoft Excel & Office Essentials and QuickBooks to Conversational Mandarin, Career Readiness and the Government Contracting Academy, runs live online with a real instructor. You join from home, ask questions in real time, and do the same hands-on work as the in-person group.
Live online, not a video library
Many online courses are a set of recordings you watch alone. Ours are different. You attend a scheduled class with an instructor and classmates.
- You can ask a question and get an answer in the moment.
- You practice during class, not just afterward.
- A set schedule keeps you on track, so you actually finish.
If you live near San Bernardino, you can also attend in person at 255 N. D Street, Suite #200-XXVII, San Bernardino, CA 92401. The choice is yours for every class.
