Self-paced virtual classes

What do you call a class that allows you to set your own schedule yet still delivers the same content, interactive exercises, and hands on labs as our classroom training? IBM's latest alternative to classroom training: self-paced virtual classes. The typical self-paced virtual class is a 30 to 80-hour, online course that uses:

• web-based reading assignments
• multimedia presentations based on the same great content used in our classroom courses
• content support by instructors and subject matter experts
• interactive exercises and hands on lab assignments using the actual product.
