In 2004 we launched the web training service http://www.museumclasses.org. This exciting training vehicle allows any museum person to attend professional continuing education in museum studies topics, without the costs of travel to attend a workshop. The technology not only transmits information beautifully, but also creates new professional networks as museum staff from around the world instantaneously communicate with each other about topics of mutual concern. We have had many rave reviews for the technology and the information taught using the technology.
