NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Nottingham, Notts, United Kingdom, 03/10/2008 - Leading reviewer Richard Naish sees Atlantic Link’s rapid authoring tools as a fulfilment of a prediction he made five years ago.

In 2003 he wrote in e.learningage “In five year’s time the new landscape of e-learning may look something like this… organisations will be developing their own e-learning content using authoring tools that are as user friendly as Power Point.” This year he refers to this prediction when reviewing the Atlantic Link tools for Training Media Review which gives the software the highest rating of four stars.

In the review of the Atlantic Link suite of products he highlights a number of key strengths.

1) The use of Internet Based software for authoring e-learning. He says “The power of e-learning has always been that learners can access the training from any location at any time convenient for them as long as they have a computer and an internet connection.”

2) Content Creation tools. Naish says “Teams located in different parts of the world can create content. Due to globalisation and the power of the internet, such global teams are commonplace in organisations. The content development team may be based in one country, the programming team in another (for example, India or Central Europe), and the end users in several countries around the world.”

3) Workflow management features. “With this software’s workflow tools, a team member can add an issue to be fixed, and the project manager can assign the job of fixing it to another team member. When that team member next logs into the software, the can clearly see the new task they have been assigned.

4) Accessibility. The Atlantic Link software allows e-learning to be written that conforms to WWC AA standards. Naish writes “With one click in Atlantic Link, the content is accessible through screen readers.”

5) Reclamation of legacy material. “Atlantic Link quickly imports legacy material in the form of a PowerPoint slide presentation, allows you to edit the content to increase its interactivity, and then disseminate it to the target learners as a stand alone program or part of a larger training program.”
