The product launch was held today at the International Federation of Training and Development Organizations (IFTDO) World Conference being held in conjunction with the Canadian Society for Training and Development (CSTD) annual conference in Toronto, Ontario. The workGroup Edition provides smaller-sized e-learning development teams with the advantages of working on a single e-learning development platform without incurring the costs and hassles often associated with taking on an enterprise-level tool. The dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition focuses on features that directly benefit smaller-sized development teams. This includes the complete feature set of the dominKnow LCMS's integrated Authoring Tool, with its straightforward, non-programming approach to creating interactive learning content as well as its PowerPoint import wizard, integrated image editor and narration and video recording wizard. The workGroup Edition is SCORM-compliant, ensuring that content easily and seamlessly works with all third-party Learning Management Systems (LMS). Combining the dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition with the dominKnow Learning Center is one of the easiest and least expensive ways for an organization to begin making and delivering online learning. "E-learning teams in organizations of all sizes need to work together on projects and protect and re-use their investment in learning content," says Bill Beacham, CEO of dominKnow Learning Systems. "The dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition helps teams of up to five e-learning authors take advantage of the benefits a single, hosted authoring and development platform can offer without incurring the cost of a full Learning Content Management System." The dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition allows teams to: -- Work together and collaborate within a single development environment -- Rapidly create online courses with pre-and post-testing -- Incorporate audio, video and animations to enrich the learning experience -- Share images and multimedia assets from a single, tracked asset library -- Quickly and easily update content as learning requirements change Compared to desktop e-learning tools, the dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition allows far greater collaboration opportunities, better protection of learning content and real options for re-use and re-purposing of learning material. The dominKnow LCMS workGroup Edition is available in a hosted model for teams of up to five e-learning authors.
