Technology-based training offers a flexible, cost-effective way of meeting the increasing need for people to reskill. This work provides an accesible guide to the potential benefits and pitfalls of this form of training. It describes the evolution of technology-based training; the various technologies and their uses; the benefits of using such flexible learning and how to use the technology; how to implement TBT in an organization and where the future might lie. Brian Tucker also deals with the choosing and evaluating generic training and the issues of bespoke training - either produced in-house or outsourced.
