This database of web-based training resources includes online tutorials, continuing education units, training curricula, and core documents. Electronic resources include those freely available on the Internet as well as those courses requiring payment of fees; when available, continuing education units are indicated. Full record fields include author or authoring agency, title of the course, date of publication or date accessed online, publisher, place of publication, address and other contact information, keywords, technical notes, a brief annotation, and the Internet address or URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of the item. When the resource is part of a series, this will also be indicated.

The information contained in the record includes:

• Authour/agency: Author names are given with surname first. Authors are identified as they appear on the website, or in the associated journal article or book. Corporate authors, indicating agencies and institutions responsible for the creation of the publication, are given where web-based courses are created by a collaborative team, such as authors, designers, developers, and technicians. First and second authors or editors of the "parent" book in which a chapter appears are also given. Faculty and Instructors may be included as well. Take these variations into account when searching by authors or agencies.
• Title: The title of a learning resource or course, or the title of the article, chapter, or book associated with such a resource.
• Place of publication: The city, and abbreviation of the State, where the publisher is located.
• Publisher:The name of the publisher of the web- or computer-based resource, or the name of the publisher of the article, journal, chapter, or book associated with the course. More than one publisher name may be given when the resource is jointly published, including agencies publishing a resource on their website.
• Date of publication: The date published, unless the date follows the word RETRIEVED, in which case it represents the date on which the item was accessed on the Internet, at the location indicated.
• Series: A succession of usually continuously numbered issues or volumes of a publication, published with related authors or subjects and similar formats. The Title and Volume number of the Series is given when applicable. May give the title of a book or journal series upon which an online resource is based. May indicate a module within a modular continuing education series.
• Notes: The Notes field includes technical requirements, such as the need for specific browsers or software applications, as well as indicating format, such as PDF or HTML, and whether the item is multimedia, modular, or interactive. The Notes field also includes information on the availability of continuing education credits, and indicates whether the item is freely available on the Internet, or requires payment of a fee. The Abstract field briefly annotates or describes the resource, and gives learning objectives when available. Because some training resources are not open access, some annotations are from original author abstracts of articles or presentations, table of contents, or course catalog descriptions. Whenever possible, annotations are based on direct experience and evaluation of the resource. The last field in each full entry gives the Internet address or URL (Uniform Resource Locator).
• Abstracts: A brief summary or informative description of the content of the web resource, course or document. May include, or be based upon, original author abstracts, course descriptions found in online catalogs, tables of contents, or course syllabi.
• Keywords: A subject heading or index term which describes an important topic or central focus of the resource, course, article or document. Key concepts, used to describe the content of the resource, course, or document.
