After the introduction of the virtual learning and training environment as the modern CBT infrastructure, the courseware concepts based on the modularity with separation of the course framework from the course contents and with the separation of the course material from the course material description are discussed in this paper. The concept virtual references is introduced to support the late binding of courseware components. User adaptation is supported by using special exploration and examination components. In order to realize the concepts, a system architecture pf am omtermet-based CBT system "Modular Training System (MTS" and its functionality including courseware production, courseware prese ntation and administration are presented.
