This paper describes the response of one vocational education and training institution to the use of online technologies. Using a learning theory perspective, management perspective and the author's own experiences the paper describes four models for the use of online technologies in the delivery of vocational programs. The authors suggest that the opportunities that online technology provides cannot be maximised or sustained until management systems and processes change to incorporate these innovations. They conclude that this is a major change management issue in the provision of vocational education.
