Abstract
This paper describes the architecture and implementation of the Dedicated's MTS — Modular training System, a Computer Based Teaching system. It is a distributed, multiplatform and multimedia system that relies strongly in the comunication features to add a new dimension to the area of the CBT. A big emphasis is put in the student's evaluation, course material reusability and it's automatic distribution throughout the entire European Training Center's network.
