Workshops the Wired Way

Modern technology makes it easy for anyone with a computer and an Internet connection to access training on virtually any subject. With the click of a mouse, you can learn how to arrange flowers or earn a degree without leaving the comfort of your home. You can log in to join a live class or sign in at your convenience. Training can include video clips, audio or chat rooms. There have never been so many options! But why would any organization want to deliver their training via the Internet? Not only is there the entire question of technology and the skills needed to use it effectively, but there is also the problem that whatever you put into cyberspace potentially becomes available free-of-charge to thousands and thousands of people. So is it all worth it?
