In the military in the 2000-01 timeframe they release the Job 
Qualification Standard for my specialty (small computers maintenance), 
and many of the training references were to websites.  Many of the web 
sites did not belong to the military, and some of them were no longer 
on-line when I went to read them.

Nice idea, until you try it.
