However, the product person who first saw the value of a TOC was correct – although that has gone by the wayside.

I consider them the first, because Skillsoft just acquired course publishers, NetG – who acquired the most amazing video course solution, which could run on 38.8Kps, and you could bookmark the courses – unheard of. NetG ruined them). It was challenging to learn, but a great product. Sure folks.
