Editor’s note
=============
After a mammoth effort from our technical, production and 
editorial teams, a brand new TrainingZONE finally launched late 
on Wednesday evening.  It’s been a massive task, not least 
because it’s the first major overhaul of the site since it was 
started back in Autumn 1997.  Every area of the site has been 
treated to a brand-new look, and the navigation has been 
reorganised to bring the most heavily-used areas to the 
forefront.  Next Monday, the site will be getting its official 
relaunch, when we’ll showcase all that’s on offer – if you’d 
like to be associated with the launch, do get in touch with our 
sales team at mailto:sales@trainingzone.co.uk .  In the 
meantime, the News section below gives a special preview of some 
of the new features we’ve added.  We hope you enjoy the new site!
p.s. The TrainingZONE team will be on the move at CIPD Harrogate 
next week, but we’d still love to catch up with you.  Send us an 
e-mail at the address below before Wednesday and we’ll be happy 
to arrange a meeting.

21 Ways to Deliver Excellent Training
————————————-
If you were going to a training course, what would you like it to 
be?  Interesting?  Fun?  Relevant to your work?  Something that 
will stick in your memory for years to come?  What a pity, then, 
that most training is dull, says Dick Barton.  Here, he offers a 
solution in the form of a 24 page file containing a series of 21 
instant, practical ideas to liven up your training events.

E-learning – all you ever wanted to know!

track of the latest innovations and what they might mean for 
training in your organisation, or how they might impact on the 
way you deliver training.  Now, independent consultants Elearnity 
bring comprehensive summaries of the latest developments straight 
to your inbox.  To see a sample issue and to sign up to receive
