Abstract: An intranet online dissemination system that facilitates real time automated communication of event information to a particular user's profile. The system comprises a communication medium including a host interface for creating, categorizing, and timing the event's information. A digital repository is provided for storing the event information. Additionally, a processing module is coupled to the repository and the host interface for queuing and disseminating the event information to a user interface. An information module is provided for identifying a user and a user's profile to the system at the user interface. The processing module selectively communicates the event information via the communication medium to the user based upon the user's profile.

Abstract: An online course preparation method and system is provided in which reference material comprising pre-read documents is associated and made available with a respective course. The system provides for real time documents and comprises a document repository for storing course information and associated pre-read documents. A first interface is included for creating, identifying, and linking the pre-read documents to an associated course in the repository. A second interface is also provided for a user registering for an associated course. An information module identifies the user to the system and verifies authorization of the user and additionally, a processing module, coupled to the repository and the second interface, communicates real time via a communication medium the associated pre-read documents of a selected course.
