Course Features & Benefits

Our courses offer unique benefits unavailable from other self-paced training providers. Each course is developed using a rigorous set of criteria which cover everything from content to graphics, making learning fun, interesting and effective.

Skill Assessment:

Generates a customised learning path based on the results of a pre-test of your skills before taking a course. The pre-test identifies individual strengths and weaknesses, allowing you to take only the units you haven't mastered.

Allows testing at any time and is available with each course
Tracks your scores by unit. Initial, current, and best scores are tracked.

Provides a post-test. You'll know how well you've mastered the material once the test is completed.

Questions:
Challenge you with a variety of question formats, including multi-step simulations, true/false, multiple choice, and fill-in-the-blank.

Some courses are in the "Think About it" format. After answering these questions, you receive a green check mark for a correct response, a red "x" if the answer is incorrect, or a purple exclamation point indicating you are on the right track. The course then gives a hint and the option to re-answer the question correctly.

Simulations:
Use the free Macromedia Authorware Web Player plug-in, enabling you to run the optional simulations found in most nu-Learning.com's courses.
Are multiple-step, with realistic screen representations, so you can see how the application really works.
Include hits and step-by-step instructions to assist you through the simulations.

May be replayed multiple times for a better understanding of the illustrated concepts.

Exercises:
Give you valuable hands-on experience.
Can be combined with the supplied sample files, allowing your new skills to be tested by completing an exercise with the actual application.

Include pre-bundled sample applets to run Visual Basic (for our Visual Basic courses).

TOP

   
Supplied Sample Files:
Include sample documents, application files, programs, and programming code.
Can be copied into a document or compiler, enabling you to practice with these files and save time by using them in a document or program of your own.
Use a split screen approach (the ability to see both exercise instructions and live application on one screen) to ensure full understanding.

Allow code analysis and provide sample output, enhancing your learning experience.

Global Bookmarking:
Tracks your progress in a course. The next time you access the course, you will return to the same location within the course. You don't need to remember either where you stopped or how to return to there.

Can be bypassed if you are only using course for reference and do not need to bookmark.

Delivery:
No downloading of course files is required before, during, or after a course is taken by an online user. This keeps local hard drives free of unnecessary files.
Each course page is a separate HTML file, making it easy on network bandwidth, and making it possible to navigate within a course one page at a time on demand.

Small page size (average of only 16k) ensures fast response time through the Internet, Intranets, and local area networks.

Navigation:

Each Course provides students with the same easy-to use and intuitive course presentation through a web browser (i.e. Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator).

Allows you to control the pace. Learn quickly or take your time.
