Paul Shrivastava's posting peaked my interest and though I'm not able to
attend the workshop in San Diego I am interested in learning how to develop
a site where I can deliver my company's training course over the Internet.

I am computer literate but not web page design literate. Can anyone
recommend training offered or software available to enable me to deliver my
training course over the Internet? I have explored some sites but would
like to hear if anyone has any recommendations.

The best resources for web based training is the Asynchronous Learning
Network web-site run by Vanderbilt University, funded by Sloan Foundation.
