Constrains:
1. Higher development cost.
2. Can't be reused for different batch of hires.
3. Difficult to control the quality of teaching.
4. Difficult to be widely distributed to perspective customers.

Enablers:
1. Easier to compromise on individual needs.

Assuming ILT includes student books, presentation from PPT, maybe some A/V gear. And trying not to overlap with Susan too much.

Enablers:
1. People often like personally-noted printed course books to refer back to, especially if not strongly computer based.
2. Collaborative atmosphere of classroom. Immediate sharing and comparison of experience. Learning from each other.
3. Instructor can adjust delivery, adding compassion, emotion, motivation as necessary

Constraints:
1. Updates can be expensive and slow
2. May be difficult to move find clssrooms, arrange the required equipment, reproduce documentats. All the logistics of scheduling classrooms, students, instructors, and gear.

Another enabler: Could use real maps, and you could show people how to fold them back up!

Jeff seems to be all about folding maps...
