If you can see your skills on the eve online web page, wouldnt the natural step be to make it so that you can choose new skills to train? Hence making it possible to manage your skills from computers with no Eve installed, work, friends, whatever.

i think they wont impliment it because it would mean that you woulndt have to log in. if you could do skills on the web page then why not the stock market...or other items. pretty much the same reason they wont put in a quing system for skills.

This would be a good addition. Everything else should be done within the game, but the way skills work, it would be nice to be able to do it remotely.

I agree, has been something that sprung to my mind to ask as well. It would certainly be nice, particularly for, say, newbies, who's skills maybe only take 2 days max (depending how they have been training stuff obviously) who have to go away on holiday or are absent from the EVE client shortly after joining can simply go to a net cafe and set another skill to learn. Granted, if you've got a 35day skill to learn it may not be as big an issue...who knows, I ramble.
Apologies.

But that would be good for CCP, wouldn't it? Fewer simultaneous users means a cheaper server park and lower bandwidth bills.

I think that skill training should not be availible from the web site.
but
when a skill finishes say lvl3 why does it not continue onto lvl4 automatically. That would enable people to set a skill when going away on holiday, etc, knowing that their time was not being wasted. If the skill reaches lvl5 completed, then skill training would stop and a new skill would have to be selected in-game.
This system would allow players to learn while away, but only in a single skill.

I like this idea, me going on a holiday in 4 for days

Actually, I believe CCP has stated somewhere that either/both webtraining and/or skill queueing will be in. I think they said these features would come around Shiva, so it's gonna be a while yet. But son't worry, they hear our cries! 
Peace through love, understanding and superior firepower.

That's really good news. It would be wonderful to monitor skill training throughout the day, so I could train low level skills up at times when I am unable to be at home.

You people just need to learn to manage your skills.
A week lost to holiday? should have planned, and have a lvl 5 skills waiting for when you left.
I don't think skills should be accesable by web-site, alot of people just log on to train skills now, (I know this is what i'll be doing soon)
I read in a post eariler today, just training your skills is a game in itself.

Now, to me, all you do is just click your charactesheet in the Neocom and select the next skill to train to the next level. Why shouldn't it be available through the web. Imagine that you're on vacation for a really long time. All you have to do then is go to nearest internet cafe and log on. No need to have any level 5 skills ready or anything like that.

I like the idea of logging onto a website to change skills. I work weird shifts 7 days a week and can only enter the world of eve maybe only 2 hours a week, and then only if my MS allows it. Yes a good idea that should be implemented quick.

It's long overdue. If ccp thought they'd lose credits from implementing it they'd shelve it indefinately.

I would really like it, as i can have access to the internet, sometimes i cant get a connection to eve if theres port blocking in a hotel. many public places only allow port 80 and a few other ones- like messangers- to prevent people from downloading on them to save bandwidth costs.
also, when military duty calls for 2weeks-3 months, I have to either get a corpmate to manage it, or im screwed. i have access to coputers, but i cant install eve. talk about a real pain.

I personally would prefer In-game skill queuing. Even if it were limited to having a single 'short' skill, and then a secondary 'long' skill, it would be so nice to have this feature. As it is, without spending marathon gaming sessions or checking back into EVE frequently, it's hard to finish the last 8 or so hours of skills without losing time of training.

Atm I'm in the situation of only logging in when a new skill needs training as I simply don't have time to play properly.
Whilst the ability to queue skills and/or change them from the website would be convenient it is not something that I'm particularly fussed about.
What to me would be a nice feature though would be if it continued training the skill when a level finished, I have a few lvl2/3 skills that I'm not training at the moment since they take a short amount of time and I likely won't be around when they complete. Now if when finishing say lvl3 it just carried on training to lvl4 unless interrupted would make training these short skills easier.
Obviously this would have no effect when you are training to lvl5 but would reduce a certain amount of lost training time for those with little time to login whilst only making very minimal changes to the current implementation.

Goto EVE Insider, click Character Info in the submenu and then click the image of the character you want.

I still think it would be a good idea to give us the option to train skills from the char info page.

I'm not too fussed about being able to skill train on the web page, but the idea of skills training up levels is good. Or even having one skill in a holding pattern, so that when the first skill is levelled up it starts training. Would help to get those level two's up to level three's as they take between 3 and 4 hours, two of them would be 6 to 8 hours, which is great when you are at work and can't get onto the website let alone the game (damn firewalls!).
I suppose a lot of it is about managing your training, have a few untrained skills ready for when you are playing (I have loads of them, and a load of level ones ready to go to two), then kick off a nice level 4 to level 5 overnight (only 7 days and 7 hours until my science level hits five, woohoo!).

I think skill queuing is the answer. It still woulnd need us to log in to change the queue.

Both ideas are great as it would certainly help a lot of people in difficult situations, as the number of posts suggest.Hopefully the powers that be will look into it seriously.

I too think it would be a great idea, I just spent 3 months out of reach of eve because of moving and didn't have a computer I could put eve on. I had plenty of internet access to the website, but was not allowed to install ANY sotware.
3 MONTHS is a lot of training lost!

Is there any word on CCP doing this as of yet? I do prefer the website idea best, that way I can pick and choose which skills I need to train, There are alot of skills that I really dont need to keep training to lv 5 or even lv4 yet. So the continued skill thing I dont like.
Please implement this soon

There is a thread going in the "Eve idea lab" category labeled "web based skill training". Help continue the thread by adding your support for the idea.
Thanks!

I have to agree with this idea, but some restrictions should be followed in doing this.
1. Inactivity from EVE for more than a few days would cancel out the skill training and lock the webskill training until the member returns in contact with their character. Say you went on a vacation and didn't return to EVE in 3 days, it would cancel out and lockup till you came back.
Reason for this is because people think that they can train and go do something else and not play the game making EVE a waste of time going online at all. True that some skills are worth going on a vacation since the level 5 is up to 30 days of training, but doesn't mean we should abandon the game at that point. Some people do need to earn money the hard way or by E-BAY purchasing. 
2. Inactivity from game for more than a month away from game should cancel the account to avoid being charged until they return and reactivate their account. Some players may have went on a vacation and did not login for long periods. Keeping their account active role playing would show they really care to play the game. :D
