A TRAINING AND EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TRAINING WITH IMPROVED FOLLOW THROUGH

摘要

A system and method (90) for delivering a training course includes dividing the course up into training segments of manageable lengths for recipients on regular and/or frequent bases. The training segments are included with email or other electronic messages (96). The messages may include hyperlinks representing options (111) for responding to an invitation to run the training segments (93) associated with the messages. When the recipient chooses to run (111) and complete a training segment, the system moves to a subsequent message (96) and segment. If the recipient refuses to run the training (105) or delays doing so (102), the system sends increasingly urgent messages (114, 115, 116) and/or initiates personal contacts (125) to require accountability. Status messages may be sent to others (122, 131), including supervisors, for example. A measure of flexibility in timing is made available to the recipient while requiring a heightened level of accountability so that the recipient has a greater probability of completing the training courses.
