WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
Creating Simulations and CBT Using Adobe Captivate
For years, software training was primarily text-based... paste a screen shot
into a Word document, add some text with descriptions and instructions, and
voila!
The results worked, but think how much more effective it could be to have
someone actually "walk you through the steps" on the screen. That's where
Captivate comes in, letting you create that "someone".
Captivate lets you create simulations and CBT (Computer-Based Training)
inexpensively and quickly. It lets you capture what's on the screen as you
perform some software-based task, save those screen shots as a "filmstrip",
add explanatory and instructional captions, special effects, and
interactivity features to make users think they're using the software, and
play the result back as a "movie." It's a deceptively simple but powerful
tool that lets you create movies for use as demos, marketing presentations,
tutorials, even fairly sophisticated eLearning. And, compared to most other
CBT authoring tools, it's quick and easy to learn and only costs about $500.
This one-day, hands-on seminar is aimed at trainers, training developers,
marketing staff, disaster recovery personnel, and usability testers who need
to quickly get up to speed on the mechanics, design, and planning required
to create training movies using Captivate. The only prerequisites are a
basic knowledge of Windows, Internet Explorer, and PC skills in general.
