I have just finished delivering training on-line for managers of volunteers.  We had 117 participants register, about 100 of whom were actually active throughout the course.  The course, by the way, consisted of 6 modules delivered over two months (asynchronously, i.e. participants could log in, read and respond to messages at any time).  Only 3 people had technical difficulties.  Almost 90% said they would like to do this kind of training again.

We are hoping to deliver future on-line training as "live" events; our next project will be specifically for administrative personnel in community-based literacy programs.  We have just applied for funding so we don't expect to be doing this in the too near future :o)
