Briefly,
there are two approaches being used for Greynet training.
First there is the  based
one which is the typical face-2-face session that requires a classroom
of computers, where each person has there own and follows a facilitator
with a datashow.
The other is,  an
outreach approach, where there are no Centre classroom computer facilities
available. The computer training is done at local facilities such as the
high school. The WWW training is taken to where the people are (local club,
library etc).
The basic difference betwen the two is that Classroom is designed around
a Centre having computers with access to the WWW. Whereas, the Self-paced
is designed for Centres without them.
