eTraining and eLearning Tools

The Problem

Wide ranges of ever more complicated products continuously restricts the availability of experienced engineers and can limit a company's ability to expand.

The Solution

A better understanding of your products capabilities is the key to improving sales. Interactive training is the most effective way to ensure good understanding and retention of information.

Multimedia programs provide the equivalent of one to one training, except that no teacher is required and the students can work at their own pace. The programs can continuously monitor and record each users progress and performance.

Delivery by CD-ROM or Internet will allow you to train large numbers of people for very little cost.

The Problem

If you may have offered in-house or on-site training courses you are probably finding that companies are becoming less willing to lose their employees for a week or pay for the overnight bills. The courses may also need to be given by your experienced engineers who are also needed to work on their own projects.

The Solution

Producing a multimedia CD-ROM will allow you to accelerate the training course and therefore reduce the length of time that your customers need to spend at your offices. An interactive program will allow pre-training of students before they visit and will also provide continued study after they have left. On-line testing before and after the course will demonstrate the effectiveness of your efforts and ensure that future training courses are well attended. If the students forget what they have learnt they will always be able to use the CD for a refresher course. You will obviously charge the same for the course but spend less time presenting it. You may also be able to earn extra revenue from the CD sales through our comprehensive distributor network.

The Problem

Complicated machines require special assembly and maintenance procedures that are very difficult to describe in words. The cost of writing a manual can be several thousand pounds and will often fill several large folders. Unfortunately the person who best understands this procedure usually works in the assembly department and is not available to write the manual.

The Solution

Using a simple camcorder someone can video the assembly process while a clear, spoken description is given by the engineer. The video clips can be stored in a CD-ROM based electronic library that will provide a comprehensive, easy to use manual. A standard text manual for the complete range of machines could be included in Adobe Reader format with a simple search facility to find the information required. The new CD-ROM manual will hold much more information and therefore cover a wider range of machines. It will be easier to use, easier to transport, be more effective and cost less to produce than traditional paper manual designs.
