Multimedia Training Solutions:

Training that works!

We employ compelling graphics, animation, video and audio to maximize learning by engaging the sensory channels of both sight and sound. In addition, we understand the importance of performing a task as opposed to just watching a task being performed. To this end, as needs dictate, we employ real-life software simulations. This improves both retention and transfer of learning to real-world situations.


The Need:

Depository Trust Co. needed to train their brokers in the use of their online trading system. Previous efforts employed a proprietary system developed by a consultant. This hampered efforts to modify and update training in-house. The need was for a multimedia training lesson and a "template" for future development on a standard platform.

The DesignTree Solution:

Multimedia training for the "Broker TradeSuite" system. Designed and developed a model training lesson using a standard authoring tool (Authorware) where previously the client was dependant upon a third party to add and revise content. This effort enabled the client to revise and add lessons using the template as a model.


The Need:

Lucent Technologies Optical Networking Group conducted weekly teletraining sessions. These conference call sessions involved callers from all over the world. A product specialist would deliver a two-hour presentation accompanied by a Powerpoint presentation. For those unable to make a call, audiotape replays were available for a fee. Our challenge was to combine the recorded audio with the Powerpoint visual and present them on the web for delivery anytime, anywhere.

The DesignTree Solution:

Development of online teletraining session replays - integrating the powerpoint presentation visuals with recorded audio for streaming web delivery. A total of ~30 presentations was developed providing anytime / anywhere delivery with an actual cost savings made possible by the elimination of audiotape duplication and delivery. This was accomplished by integrating RealAudio technologies.


The Need:

The National Science Center needed an entertaining and informative multimedia kiosk for their museum in Augusta GA. The goal was to teach how airport baggage X-Ray machines function as well as fundamental X-Ray concepts.

The DesignTree Solution:

A fun and informative interactive multimedia museum kiosk which teaches how X-Rays can be used to detect and distinguish between a variety of materials. The user has the opportunity to examine baggage with a simulated airport X-Ray machine.
