Abstract

This paper surveys techniques for distance learning, discussing the characteristics, suitability, and cost aspects of various digital technology options. While the techniques and the employed software are generic, the discussion concerns the maritime context, with focus on technical and regulatory content and a scattered trainee base, as is typical for a classification society.
