The Meetings Community (MeCo) Group successfully launched the first virtual CMP Study Group in Second Life. The 3D virtual platform not only provided the ability to bridge distances making learning accessible to others unable to attend formal study group training nationwide, but provided live chat interaction between instructors and attendees in avatar-to-avatar format. The adjunct benefit from the educational opportunity was the elimination of carbon imprint with attendees participating from the comfort of their homes or offices.
