Beyond the Virtual Meeting

In the early years of the Internet, Web conferencing and computer conferencing were often used to refer to group discussions conducted via posted text messages. Web conferencing can be used for more than virtual meetings, its applications can also be used for the delivery and facilitation of training. Participants can connect virtually with the facilitator and other participants. One of the strengths of Web conferencing applications is the ability to share applications. Also, since many of the current Web conferencing solutions that exist can deliver training to thousands of people, it is possible to penetrate the target audience in a very short time. To recoup the maximum amount of the company's investment and to help minimize the potential frustration of facilitators and attendees, you should train new facilitators and new learners before expecting them to participate in a Web conference.
