One of the challenges that an online program faces is how to keep courses up-to-date. Links break, articles become outdated, new material appears, and so on. In essence, an online course starts deteriorating as soon as it is built. New programs are often unprepared for this problem, and end up racing to put out fires, rather than keeping the fires from developing through an organized course maintenance and updating problem. Norwich University developed an efficient and effective system that can serve as a map for online programs everywhere.
