Founded in 1993, Training Media Review provides practitioner reviews of corporate training content and technology:

• Selected books relevant to workplace training
• Videos (DVDs)
• Software and online courses
• Websites
• Training technology such as authoring tools and web conferencing products
• Selected seminars and conferences
• Games, training kits, facilitation aids

Reviewers have at least five years experience and reflect the audience they are writing for: they are inside trainers and consultants.

TMR does not charge vendors a fee for a review and does not use reviews as leverage for consulting. We make money through subscriptions, reprints, re-publication of our content, and advertising. Advertising does not influence our choice of products to review and has no influence on reviewers.
