Hi All, We have faced similar challenged in Indonesia. Typically with our trainings someone runs the powerpoint and talks at the front but then we have other trainers around the trainees looking for problems and providing help. There are also times we break into small groups. The small groups can sometimes be limited by the lack of a way to show everyone the instructors screen though. Typically we try to use two projectors (I know a luxury) one shows the slides on the topic and the other walks people through what to actual click.

How do you think doing remote training where an in person connection has already been made? For example if participants had taken part in a one or two day beginner class, but then could remotely receive follow-up training? Perhaps having the initial face to face would help.
