Rebreather E-Learning Tool?

I am thinking of designing an Elearning tool for divers contemplating transitioning to Rebreather’s. The CBT (computer based training) would help them:

* decide if an Rebreather is an appropriate tool based on a number of input criteria
* delineate a best fit in a SCR/CCR etc.

I believe this tool may be a useful, but I also have a gut feeling that I might be blowing hot smoke. Would most folks tend to use expert sources (like Rebreather World, instructors & mates) versus an Elearning tool?

The thought to design this tool came about from observing some individuals becoming very confused by the wide array of opinions and kit choices. Also, it's easier to say to some folks (who were driving me nuts) to just go there, do the work and come back when you have a formed thought. On a purely instructional side, Rebreather instructors could use this tool to demonstrate a hierarchy based approach to choosing RB’s as well as an introductory lesson to closed, or semi-closed diving.

Your thoughts appreciated. Cheers. Ken
