Hi The recent comments in the Trainer's Friend closure posting about courses not being run because of too few delegates is interesting.
I know of one training provider who does runs courses for as few as 1 delegate. (It is always hoped that more delegates would sign up before the actual course runs, but the provide advertises that a public course is not cancelled if it has only one delegate.) I continue to support this provider in my capacity as an itinerant instructor. That said I acknowledge that there are issues. The above is not viable if there is an insistence on classroom delivery and either party has to travel a great distance. Applications such as GoToMyMeeting and WebEx do help eliminate the physical travel but do not completely negate the cost. Obviously use of electronic delivery in any form also requires discipline on the part of all the attendees and a commitment to the process and this may sometimes be lacking.
