CBT can be synchronous and asynchronous, as well as online, web-based, mobile and distance learning. CBT is particularly useful when training learners on a specific computer application, but can also be built to train learners on general knowledge or skills. The greatest disadvantage of CBT is that it is expensive to develop and deliver, especially for smaller groups of students. CBT can be more cost efficient when designed to train a larger number of students.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[hubspot type=\"form\" portal=\"47185625\" id=\"074e0810-b71b-447b-b963-34de0418aefc\" version=\"v4\"]","custom_dfp_keywords":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.8 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Computer-based Training (CBT) - Training Industry<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Computer-based training (CBT) involves the use of a personal or networked computer for the delivery and access of training programs.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/trainingindustry.com\/glossary\/computer-based-training-cbt\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Computer-based Training (CBT)\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Computer-based training (CBT) involves the use of a personal or networked computer for the delivery and access of training programs.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/trainingindustry.com\/glossary\/computer-based-training-cbt\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Training Industry\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TrainingIndustry\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-01-18T14:54:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/trainingindustry.com\/content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/ti-logo-stacked.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"400\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@TrainingIndustr\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/computer-based-training-cbt\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/computer-based-training-cbt\\\/\",\"name\":\"Computer-based Training (CBT) - Training Industry\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2010-01-01T17:00:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-01-18T14:54:00+00:00\",\"description\":\"Computer-based training (CBT) involves the use of a personal or networked computer for the delivery and access of training programs.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/computer-based-training-cbt\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/computer-based-training-cbt\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/computer-based-training-cbt\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Glossary\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/glossary\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Computer-based Training (CBT)\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/trainingindustry.com\\\/\",\"name\":\"Training Industry\",\"description\":\"Articles, research and tools for the L&amp;D professional.
