Summary: Really nothing else like it - anywhere
Comment: This is truly an amazing resource for trainers, OD specialists, HR personnel, and consultants. Basically this CD-ROM contains the entire library of publications from the training publisher Pfeiffer - in one place and fully searchable. Downloading the Acrobat 3.0 files takes just seconds, and then you can browse the entire range of games, instruments, and activities for which Pfeiffer is so well known from the catalogs I get all the time.

Just yesterday I had a situation in which I needed several choices of empowerment exercises for our customer service team. I searched for "empowerment" from the keyword index and, in seconds, I found over 20 really excellent choices that I can use with that team's manager. I cut and pasted one of them into Word, added a few custom touches that are particular to our company, and gave it to the team leader this morning. They are starting their new empowerment training next week. No books, no high-priced consultants, and no further involvement from the HR department.

I know this CD-ROM is expensive, but it saved me hours of work and I can see how it will save me even more in the future. I'm sorry the guy who made the comment below didn't realize exactly who this product is for. It's for ME, and I am truly glad to have found it.

Summary: College Course
Comment: The CD is basically correctly titled, it's a library of training articles. The index and layout are good. The basic content is good. Where it did not meet my expectations was usability. It was more of a reference that you'd use in a college course or research paper. For every day trainer usability. . .not friendly. This material would be better in separate books that you could select from judiciously. Definitely, not worth the $$$$ price tag. I would have paid $100 for it.
