You and your tutor agree on what you&#8217;ll cover, when sessions happen, and how the training is paid for in milestones. Once you&#8217;ve enrolled, everything for that course lives in a <strong>training batch<\/strong> \u2014 your dedicated workspace for that engagement.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"formats\">One-to-one vs group training<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Live courses come in two formats:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>One-to-one<\/strong> \u2014 private sessions with the tutor focused entirely on you, with pacing and topics tailored to your goals.<\/li><li><strong>Group<\/strong> \u2014 you learn alongside other students in the same batch, usually at a set schedule and shared curriculum.<\/li><\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both formats use the same training batch tools \u2014 sessions, curriculum, quizzes, and progress tracking.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"vs-video\">Live courses vs video courses<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The key difference is real-time interaction:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Live courses<\/strong> \u2014 scheduled sessions with a tutor, two-way interaction, a curriculum tailored to the batch, and milestone-based payment. Best when you want guidance, feedback, and accountability.<\/li><li><strong>Video courses<\/strong> \u2014 pre-recorded lessons you watch at your own pace, any time, with no scheduling. Best for self-paced, independent learning.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"journey\">Your live learning journey<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A typical live course follows these stages:<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Find and enrol<\/strong> \u2014 you find a tutor or training and enrol, agreeing the scope, schedule, and milestones.<\/li><li><strong>Your batch is created<\/strong> \u2014 a training batch appears under My Training Batches with all your tools in one place.<\/li><li><strong>Attend sessions<\/strong> \u2014 you join live sessions with your tutor on the agreed schedule.<\/li><li><strong>Follow the curriculum and milestones<\/strong> \u2014 you work through topics, complete quizzes and assignments, and release milestone payments as work is completed.<\/li><li><strong>Complete the course<\/strong> \u2014 once all milestones are done, the batch is marked completed and you can review your reports.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"manage\">Where you manage everything<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All your live courses live under <strong>My Training Batches<\/strong> in your student account. Open any batch to find its sessions, curriculum, shared files, quizzes and assignments, messages, progress reports, payments, and alerts \u2014 each on its own tab. The next articles in this section walk through each of those areas.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I enrol in a live course?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See <a href=\"https:\/\/tutorac.com\/help-center\/2026\/05\/14\/how-to-enroll-in-a-live-course-on-tutorac\/\">How to enrol in a Live Course on Tutorac<\/a> for the step-by-step process.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can I switch between one-to-one and group?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The format is set when you enrol, based on the training you choose.
