The Virtual Classroom is a live, web-based communications platform from Distance Learning Providers, used to provide any manner of training and education. Programs using the Virtual Classroom benefit from its high level of interactivity between presenter and participant:

• Live video stream of the presenter's image
• Live, real-time, presenter-led navigation
• Live presenter markup
• Multimedia content can include high-resolution graphics, recorded video and audio, animations, etc.
• Live, two-way audio (presenter and participants)... "everyone can hear everyone"
• Instant evaluations of the session, presenter, content and effectiveness

Because of its live, interactive features, the Virtual Classroom is a synchronous, instructor-led platform.
