I'm a graduate student in Technical Communication at RPI, and I'm writing a
report on the application of multimedia in job training. I would greatly
appreciate any information you could give me about:

who is currently using a multimedia platform for job training
	- what is the platform
	- what *kind* of training are they doing (company orientation,
		software tutorials)
	- how much are they spending (the cost of equipment &
		development)

who plans to use a multimedia platform for training

what are the ranges of multimedia platforms
	- is hypertext with animation considered "multimedia"
	- given the state of most company's equipment(often
		primitive), what kind of multimedia or other training programs
		can be developed on that equipment

what do *employers* say about the advantages of multimedia training

how do people who have been trained on multimedia platforms feel about
	being trained by a computer rather than a person

Although I'm using this information primarily for a report, I'm also
curious because I think I would like to work in the field of job
training or software tutorials, and I know I would like to take a
multimedia approach to the field of technical communication.

Thanks in advance for your help.
