IAI Workshops and Online Training on CV ?

I maintain the CV's for all of the staff in my Section. I've been receiving updated copies of CV's lately where people are adding IAI Workshops and online training they have participated in to their Training section. I've personally never been one to do it, just because it looks like filler. On the other hand, it is training and I suppose if they are prepared to answer questions about the training on the witness stand then it should be okay. What does everyone think about adding these types of training to the CV? Thank you

Our agency wants us to add all IAI workshops as well although we don't add online training (or in house training such as Computer Security Awareness, etc). I've always wondered where you draw the line at how many pages a CV should be - especially for those who have been in their respective discipline for years. I suppose it's a good idea to document it all in a CV and the attorneys can figure out what they want to discuss related to your background. I guarantee a judge will not sit through 20+ pages of a CV.
