Advances in interactive multimedia and Internet technologies present an array of options that allow the development of very effective training programs. Interactive training is the delivery and management of training via CD-ROM, intranet and Internet.

Digital movies, animation, graphics and sound develop interest, increase participant attention span and leave a multi-sensory lasting impression. The trainee actively participates in the training/learning sessions by means of a user-friendly interface that empowers the participant with a sense of control over what they are learning and the pace at which they are learning. Repetition, in whole or in part, replaces stress with enjoyment and challenge at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches. 

Interactive training does not replace hands-on training but powerfully augments it. Among the many benefits of interactive training is the provision of field managers with a training tool to enhance their activities as local trainers in the training of field workers. IOSTC interactive training applications can be customized to match your organization, your equipment, your products and your staff requirements. Annual upgrades and access to professional assistance are available to provide solutions and answer questions.

Benefits of E-Learning

• Consistent delivery of information.

• Cost effective solution - significant savings over instructor-led, face-to-face training at different locations by reducing costs such as travel, meals and lodging. This method also reduces costs related to training administrative and management support by automatically measuring and recording various data relevant to the progress of trainees. 

• Higher learning absorption rate - the training modules use interactive feedback, hence improved comprehension and retention of knowledge.
• Broader range of information is provided in an easy to learn animated format.
• Availability of training seven days per week, 24 hours per day at the user's fingertips.
• Testing/Scoring - Feedback is immediate with the training modules.
• Instant update and information delivery on new products.

• Self-paced Training - users can move through the lessons at their own pace. Reviewing forgotten or unclear material is just a matter of clicking on the ˜topic or menu button.

• Self-directed Training - allowing trainees to choose content appropriate to their differing interests, needs, and skill levels
