Description: Training Solutions, Inc. (TSI) and Nortel (Northern Telecom) have
established an Interactive Distance Learning (IDL) Consortium comprised
of organizations interested in continuously developing, delivering, and
sharing cost effective, quality IDL training programs. TSI is the
primary sponsor of the IDL Consortium. The IDL Consortium invites
organizations interested in subscribing to programs and/or producing
training courses to join the Consortium at no cost. An organization
does not have to be a member of the IDL Consortium to subscribe to
broadcasts. However, only IDL Consortium members may participate in
planning, developing, and broadcasting the Consortium's training
programs. Consortium members are given the first opportunity to
subscribe to courses. Members may also elect to produce and broadcast
programs from their facilities or other members' sites. Organizations
producing IDL programs in cooperation with the Consortium will benefit
from revenues generated from third party subscribers. Any member
organization which produces a program should be able to significantly
reduce costs associated instructionals materials development and
delivery of training to employees. Consortium members receive regular
IDL program announcements describing training broadcasts being
sponsored and produced by other member organizations. Presently, the
Consortium is sponsoring several programs to be broadcast via 384 Kbps
codec signal featuring two-way audio/video. Nortel is producing courses
for the Consortium focusing on networking and telecommunications
technologies. The Consortium expects to begin offering a wide variety
of programs of interest to business, academia, and government agencies.
