On this topic Newsletters Managing the IT Professional. It's no surprise why WBT is catching on.
Users can take a course when they want, where they want, and as fast or slow as they want.
Besides convenience, low cost is also driving WBT's popularity. There's no need for expensive classrooms, plane tickets, and hotel rooms. Indeed, the savings are substantial. And those numbers don't include the savings on travel and lodging. And as fatter Internet pipes carry more bandwidth with improved video compression, WBT will offer a richer learning environment as more streaming media is integrated into courses.
