I feel like they are trying to make EVERYTHING into a CBT. There is something to be said for actual training, conducted by actual people.

I honestly think they get it totally backwards most of the time. Much of the computer based training should be actual face to face training but many of the actual classes we a forced to sit through could easily be handled via CBT or email. Case in point: I am PCSing this summer. I had to attend our base's "PCS and Moving Workshop" yesterday. I sat there for 3.5 hours and the only pertinent information I got was the estimated timeline for shipping my vehicle and my household goods back to the mainland and a list of websites for calculating DLA, per diem, travel pay, etc. Every bit of information that was given out in that class could have been sent out via a 5 page attachment to an email and then I could have actual clickable links to the websites they recommended instead of having to write them down.

I understand the perks to cost effectiveness and flexibility that come from CBTs, but I would learn a lot more (especially in the case of SABC's online portion) if it were done in a hands on format. Unfortunately, time constraints don't allow for that either.

SABC is one of the main ones I was thinking about when I wrote this.
