Thanks, Justin, your articles are efficient yet comprehensive in sharing potential careers within the Training Industry landscape.
You’re welcome David, thank you for the kind words 🙂
Hi Justin
Thanks for this huge list of niches. Though your hint on Dummies also was great, this pinpointing list is lot more great.
I had identified a few areas but they were very broad and never narrow down to any specific. Now, I can definitely shoot ahead and create the course I was waiting for.
I followed many articles on Linkedin etc. but they never revealed any specific topic. Thanks again.
We are in the IT training industry specifically Adobe Software, if you can specialise and get known as an industry expert there is plenty of work, I think a lot of training centres in the IT industry train in everything and can become diluted.
