This one-day advanced Adobe Captivate course is an on-site training course delivered as a private event at your workplace (or, as a live virtual classroom course) and is available for any version of the software for small groups of up to 10 learners.

During the course you will extend upon the foundational skills learnt from the Captivate beginners course, further developing upon your understanding of Captivate projects and learning to work with more advanced features such as Screencast (video screen capture), user-defined variables, complex interactions and conditional scripting in order to build interactive, on-demand eLearning content, tutorials and quizzes.

Notes: Adobe Captivate Terminology in Layman's Terms

1) Screencasting is simply the capturing of audio and video from your computer screen (and microphone), often in order to create a walk through of the steps for a tutorial which you can later use in your learning content.

2) The Advanced Interaction panel provides you with an overview of all the interactive instances and objects within your Captivate project allowing you to filter, analyse and review your slides based upon properties such as Success or Failure, Number of Attempts, time limits, scoring and considerably more. This panel is much under-used in Adobe Captivate but highly useful and well worth learning about.

3) In Adobe Captivate the Aggregator allows you to combine multiple bite-sized tutorials into one large tutorial with a table of contents.
