> I am trying to track down any information I would need for putting

> really don't know where to begin.  Wayland is looking at setting up a
> joint program with Kenya Baptist Theological College Kenya at the
> Brakenhurst Centre (about 25 miles from downtown Nairobi).  I think that
> key component is going to be Internet access, but out there, access is
> somewhat slow and not always reliable, so my thought is that a satellite
> link is our best bet.

> I need to track down info on whatever is related to setting something

> outcomes etc.

> Can anyone offer me any input here?
