Unlike traditional training courses, those run with ITS Playback are non-linear. This means that, although trainees can progress through a course in a sequential fashion, there is the scope for viewing topics as and when desired, whether it is to recap on a specific topic, or to repeat a task. Such flexibility allows the training material to be used, not only as a course of study, but also as a Help tool, to aid a practising user through a particular aspect of a task, while on the job.
Designed for trainers by trainers, The ITS Suite, which incorporates ITS Designer, ITS Playback, ITS Manager and other ancillary applications, is part of wider advances in the PC-based approach to professional training. Traditional methods have focused on the lecture, whereby the trainer instructs, and the trainee observes. PC-based courses, aided by their multi-media formats, provide trainees with a more active and hands-on approach to training, which is based on trial and error. They are encouraged to interact with the Training Course by answering questions, typing relevant information, and clicking appropriate buttons.
