Question

Which product?

I'm relatively new to the Adobe products and our manager of E-Learning is currently in the wilds of Michigan and unreachable. So I reach out to you for assistance.

Our CFO would like to create a webcast to be viewed by some attorneys in the firm. He will be recording audio segments and will most likely have a PowerPoint in which to accompany his voice. In addition, I forsee him wanting to use Excel spreadsheets and possibly other documents (PDF, etc.) and have this posted to our many servers so that those with "permissions" are able to access it.

In addition, he may want to know who of the select group has viewed it - ie reports.

Which product or products will best serve my needs?

    Yes "T" - you are right. It can be done that way. But you will lack track, trace and testing tools. And you will have to do all follow-up manually.

    True - it will not be the e-learning portion; as I mentioned, it would be meeting room only. And yes, as I mentioned, it would not provide the more granular tracking provided through training. But through the API, the follow-up can be done automatically as well as manually. It always depends on how much you are willing to spend and how much effort you are willing to put in to make solutions work. Best of luck!

    Depending on the granularity of data you want to track, you *could* just use the Meeting module. You can set up a meeting room with a file share pod (like a mini FTP server) in the room so users with permission can go in and download the files; broadcasting and recording a webcast is easy, including screen sharing out the XLS and PDF documents; and if all you want to know is who viewed it, you can see who joined the meeting room and how long they were in it through meeting reports.

    Adobe Presenter for creating "on demand" training sessions from Powerpoint with voice-over - and the Connect training module for reports and link to file download (PDF and Excel).

    If you also want to do "live" training - you will need the Connect meeting module (Acrobat Connect professional).
