Online delivery of educational materials is not a new concept. Arguably, the global maritime indus- try lags badly in its utilization of this increasingly important tool. The new Manila Amendments to the STCW Code directly address the possibility of expanding online education, blend- ed learning and alternative ways to deliver content. Webcast participants can, upon request, take away tools from the webinar that can assist them in their quest to improve employee knowledge and facilitate regulatory (think: Manila amendments to STCW code) compliance. This Webcast will quite possibly be one of the more important learning and interactive events for the global mar- ketplace in the New Year. Make plans now to participate and stay tuned for additional details. To get an idea of the objectives and outcomes of past webinars, MarPro readers can click on http://www.apu.apus.edu/lp/webcas t.
