Computer based training or a CBT uses a personal computer or computers connected to a central network to deliver synchronous training outside of in-person training sessions. A CBT is used so a learner can access the CBT online, through a mobile device or through LMS or a Learning Management System.
CBTs can be expensive to develop so these are usually done for training that needs to be accessed by a large group of learners and through and LMS can be used to keep track of learners’ progress and certification.
