Training sessions across different geographic locations

Original Message

Hi Folks!

We have to run 18 training sessions annually, now the problem is that my company has started a new location which is far away, but accessible by 'Video Conferencing'. Bandwidth is not a problem.

I did try running a session through Video Conferencing, however its not effective, presentations cant be run simultaneously, and theres no interaction.

I can understand these problems will always exist, however I beleive that there are few applications / tools / technologies that ease training sessions across geographies and are custom made for this purpose.

I would love to hear from you about these solutions!
