Standard CD-ROM Version

This version runs from the CD-ROM drive on the training computer. Or, if you have a large hard drive and do not want your workers handling the CD-ROMs, you can install the entire CD-ROM onto the local hard drive.

Network-Optimized

This version is identical to the standard version except for the video files. The video files have been encoded at a low bit rate, and a smaller size. This version takes 90% less bandwidth than the standard version. This makes it ideal for corporate LANS, WANS, and Intranets. The bandwidth requirements are 128 kilobits per second.

Administration

Whether you are using CD-ROMs or the Network-Optimized version, we recommend that you keep all of the training records in a single database on a file server. This will allow any worker to take the training from any training station and have the system update the records in only one database. This also allows the Course Administrator, using our software to view and print reports from his/her workstation without having to go to each training station.

Content Management

MODIFY™, Mastery’s customization software, provides an easy way for users to customize the courses to meet site-specific requirements. With MODIFY™, you can add change or remove content (video, graphics, text, audio), you can convert a course to a new language (Chinese, Portuguese, etc.), you can add, change, or remove questions; you can add, change, and remove glossary terms and video index items. When you have completed your modifications, MODIFY™ has a feature to deploy your changes across your network so that all systems will be operating with the same version of the course. In addition, with a course shell, you can create a custom course from scratch with all of the features of Mastery’s off-the-shelf courseware.

Customer-Created Courses

Customers can create their own Mastery Advantage courses using MODIFY™ Course Shells. These inexpensive “course kits” let customers quickly publish their own training on Mastery’s platform, using the full feature sets of the Mastery Runtime System, Training Manager, Training Requirements, STARS Record keeping, multilingual support, and other MODIFY™ courseware customization capabilities.
