I remember when MIT came out with MITOPENCOURSEWARE.  I thought this would fuel other online training programs, but nothing ever came of it. 

Google is taking another stab at it with Google Code University.  They offer courses in AJAX Programming, Distributed Systems, Web Security, and Languages.  The courses are provided by Google and different Universities.  Outside the lectures are different tools and a nice CS Curriculum Search.  The CS Curriculum Search is specific to materials posted by different CS Departments.

It is another great step for online education.  This is very different from Microsoft's great Webcasts because MS Webcasts target only their products.  MIT's and Google's online training target the fundamentals of Computer Science which is what we need.
