Training Manager

POWERFUL
Management Controls
Training Manager is a powerful course management program that allows you to tailor options and features to meet your needs. You will use this system to manage the day-to-day training operations and the training delivery process.

Here are some of the highlights of this system:
Control the features below from the General tab
	You can use a touchscreen or mouse to control the course.
	You can select either full-screen or 1/4 screen video.
	You can customize the sign-on and course selection menu to include your company name.
	The Learner Controls section lets you specify whether learners are: allowed to exit training and go to the Windows desktop, an important security feature allowed to use the “Skip Lesson” option on the Control Bar allowed to use the “Forward” and “Skip” option on the Control Bar offered closed captions when closed caption files are available for a course
	This is an important network feature. We allow you to search a whole list of drives for courseware. In this example, this training station will go out and search on Server Q, Server S, and Server T. It will list all of the courses on each of the servers and make it accessible to this training station. No one but Mastery can do this!
	This option lets you select the default language to be used by the Runtime System messages, the Course Listing and learner orientation lesson.
	The Mastery Runtime System includes a Learner Satisfaction Survey that can be automatically administered at the completion of any course. To activate the survey, just click the radio button next to the frequency option you want. The survey can be conducted only after a learner’s first course, or it can be conducted after every course. Clicking “None” turns off the survey.
	The standard learner sign-on screen asks the learner to enter a nine-digit social security number. You can tailor the learner sign-on to ask for other ID numbers (maximum nine characters broken into a maximum of three segments).
Control the features below from the Courseware tab
	You can tell the system what courses you would like active on the course listing menu that the learners will see.
	You can scramble the order of the questions.
	Follow-up Review is a unique feature of Mastery courseware. When this feature is activated, the system will remember the problem areas from a learner’s previous session in a course. When the learner returns to the course it will give a review of those problem areas. This will help reinforce difficult concepts. This feature dramatically improves long term retention of course material.
	The Express feature streamlines the entire training session. It can save a lot of training time if you want your workers trained in a single session. Basically, it eliminates all the menus. When learners start the course it will automatically take them through all lessons and quizzes without them having to make lesson selections. It will play the first lesson and quiz, then the second lesson and quiz, and so on until it finishes the last lesson. After learners finish the last lesson, it congratulates them and automatically signs them off and returns them to the sign-on screen—ready for a new learner.
	Every course has an option for a pre-test. You can make the pre-test optional to the learner, not available to the learner or required by the learner.
	If you’ve assigned a different course ID to a Mastery course in your other Human Resource systems, enter that course code here. This will provide a link with your other HR databases which will be used during data exports.
	You can use Training Manager to administer non-Mastery courses too. You can add some of the Mastery Advantage to other publisher’s computer based courses and even instructor-led classes and off-site seminars. Click here to learn how you can use the Mastery administration and management systems to manage all your training.
	If you offer this course in more than one language, you can specify which language should be used on a particular system to eliminate the user selecting the language at the start of the session.
	We directly support all forms of CD-ROM Jukeboxes and disc changers/towers. Simply enter the drive letter assigned to each course title.
Control the features below from the Learner Data tab
	You can require that students be pre-enrolled by you, or allow learners to enroll themselves.
	You can choose between two different methods to easily change how mastery is calculated. You can also adjust mastery percentages with Modify.
	Use this option to enter learner completion data for classroom, seminar, and other forms of non-computer based training that you want to include in the Training Requirements management and STARS reporting systems.

Use this screen to quickly enter non-computer based training completion records. You can enter the complete class roster by simply clicking on the attendee’s names, the class title, and “Enter Data”. Nothing can be easier!

	Change the column headings for the four groups to which employees can be assigned in the Training Requirements and STARS databases.
	NOW let the system monitor your worker’s individual training requirements. Learn more about the new Training Requirements feature—click the graphic.
