Does anyone know of some good examples of online training materials?
I work for a company that provides community web services to big companies: something like Salesforce.com.
I have been put in charge of coming up with ideas for training some big customers on a new program we are releasing.
Can anyone point me in the direction of some companies that have really effective online training materials? I personally like the yahoo answers format and would like to include that, but would be interested in any other suggestions you might have.
Sorry, I guess I wasn’t very clear with my question. I would like to see specific training strategies and materials that actual successful companies are using out there. We are probably going to write manuals, create a user community, knowledge base, training videos, webinars….
All this stuff we have done before and are doing. I would love to look at some new directions. That is why this yahoo answers is so interesting to me. One thing I would like to do is empower the users to help each other like this service. Maybe even allow then to add training videos like a youtube idea or chat together while using our applications.
I want to expand what we are doing and thought copying some best practices might be a good way to start branching out.

If you’re going to be in charge of something like “on-line” training, you might want to become familiar with search engines.
I just found your answer for you, but I want you to go through the motions yourself. It’s for your own good.
1) go to
2) type in “online training services”
3) read what it says
