May 2008Vol. 9, No. 4Using E-Learning for Staff Training
E-learning, or the delivery of education using the Internet and other distance technologies, is the focus of the February 2008 issue of the newsletter Training Matters. E-learning is an increasingly popular approach for delivering needed training to child welfare staff because it offers the potential for reducing classroom time, travel time, and travel costs.
