| Abstract: | The purpose of this study was to determine if there is a relationship between learner personality types and perceived satisfaction when using Web-based instruction for mandatory and self-regulated continuing professional development. Two hundred and four real estate practitioners who participated in a Web-based professional development course completed the Millon Index of Personality Styles (MIPS) instrument and a survey to compare personality type and satisfaction. No relationship was found between personality types and satisfaction when using Web-based instruction. The majority (97%) of participants were satisfied with the course regardless of their personality characteristics. |
