CBT (Computer-Based Training)
Computer-Based Training (CBT) refers to the use of computer software to deliver educational content and training programs. CBT was one of the earliest forms of technology-enhanced learning, appearing in the late 1970s and early 1980s with the advent of personal computers.
Early CBT programs were often distributed on floppy disks or CD-ROMs and used locally installed software. While initially limited to text and basic graphics, advancements in computing power allowed CBT to incorporate multimedia, interactivity, and simulations, making it a popular training method in industries like aviation, manufacturing, and healthcare. CBT has largely evolved into eLearning as internet-based technologies became more prevalent.
