We use the following rapid authoring tools to develop eLearning courses: Articulates Presenter, Engage, and Quizmaker Adobes Captivate Trivantis Lectora Rapid Intakes ProForm We give you the freedom to decide your tool of preference, or, depending on the nature of the project, we recommend a tool to create a standards compliant eLearning course.

A Simulation is an Opportunity to make decisions in a real situation without the fear of failure. How about testing your ERP or any software product in live real time scenario, being fearless of committing mistakes, this is a simulation environment meant for learning, although, the system is well supported with guided and non-guided parameters to ensure that your learning is going the right way. Scenario-based learning is designed to put learners in a situation or context, introduce them to the issues and challenges in that context, and gives them an opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills relevant to the situation.
Game-based Learning
How about explaining the concept of FOUR Ps in management through a live game, giving the learner an option of assembling a product, define marketing strategy, make a cost sheet and sell the product.
Game based learning deals with applications that have

defined learning outcomes. Generally they are designed in order to balance the subject matter with the gameplay and the ability of the player to retain and apply said subject
Piron offers simulations of varied categories:
matter to the real world. Experience with and affinity for games as learning tools is an increasingly universal characteristic among those entering higher education and the workforce.

Each phase is characterized by a set of activities and a project output in the form of a tangible deliverable.
The deliverable for one phase is the input for the next. Each phase also culminates in a review , which
forms a go/no-go point for deciding whether to proceed to the next phase or not.
