Concentrates on longer-established efforts made in Wales to use the Internet as a gateway for opportunities for adult learners. Focusing on a Web-based Welsh language program over a 12-month period, this paper empirically examines the role of the Internet in providing effective access procedures to adult learning and examines who such methods are attracting and what learners are beginning to use the Internet for.
