How do you create computer base training(CBT) and web base training (WBT) using Captivate 3 or 4?  I know how to record from an application, but how do you put it all together into CBT?  What other tools do I need?

I have a new job where I have to create CBT training and web base training for our client.  We are using Captivate 3.  How do I use this tool to create computer base and web base training?  Do I need to use another program or tool along with Captivate in order to create the training?  Also, I have the iser manual already created.  What we are trying to do is to convert the user manual into computer base training.  Once we convert the training into cbt or wbt, we will distribute CD's to our client so that they can use the CD's and or a website for computer base training.

Instead of me and my training team going to our client to conduct stand up training, we are trying to set up cbt/wbt training so that they can work at their own pace.

Please let me know if you can answer these questions or direct me in the right direction.

Trying to understand your question. In CP you can do more than just creating software demonstrations. You can use simulations, add slides, quizzes, branching, audio, video...

If you are talking about putting several CP-files together in one course, you could use Aggregator to have one file for output. CP works normally for WBT together with a LMS.

If you want to integrate several CP-files into a course, where more text is needed several possiblities: integrate them in a shell like Adobe Presenter, Lectora (Trivantis). Even integrating in a pdf-file is possible with Acrobat 9.

To have a more precise answer, please be a little more specific in your question.

Hi there

I'm not sure you will get any pre-defined recipe for this.

Basically you need to sit down and think about what exactly you hope to accomplish. Use your imagination and consider how you would like for things to work if all you had was the computer to guide you with whatever the stand up training offers.

Would a video of a talking head help?

Are there other materials that are often used? Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, Images or other things?

Once you get this all figured out, you then will decide how to proceed and factor Captivate into that equation.

Hopefully others will offer their own insights too.

Cheers... Rick
