A major challenge for educators wishing to adopt e-learning practices or redevelop their courses is the often significant lead time for development using traditional methods. Wikis offer a platform on which educators can design, develop and evaluate while simultaneously providing students with access to materials. This trial sought to inform the development of standards and guidelines around the use of wikis as development and delivery platforms, and explore the question, "Do wikis offer a sustainable, collaborative rapid development tool for the VET sector?"

CEB developed, trialled and evaluated an automatic RSS based course administration, monitoring and reporting system as part of an organisation wide e-learning infrastructure, communication, professional development, and organisational change strategy. The trial involved a real world pilot of a Web 2.0 learning model that is inclusive of a clouding concept. The suite of tools automated the delivery, submission and reporting process using RSS feeds, linked from personal and collaborative wikis, to feed readers embedded into other personal and collaborative wikis via Google.
