    Why is SHIFT easy to use? (2 of 4)

    SHIFT is easy to use because it automates most repetitive tasks associated with eLearning development.  Through a single login screen, based on profile, the user will have access to only the courses and the roles within those courses assigned to him.  No room for unauthorized people or unskilled people to change things.

    SHIFT allows users to create great content with no technical knowledge at all.  No graphic design skills.  A SHIFT user is able to create, for example, a great looking scenario, perhaps re-creating a sales-client interaction, consisting of several scenes, several dialogues and several characters, easily and with zero technical, flash or programming skills.  Creativity is the only required ingredient.

    The smart templates (over 250) allow the writers to choose the best interaction for the content.  It's as easy as clicking on a thumbnail.  By filling in the preconfigured fields, the development environment will know what needs to be displayed on screen, what needs to be recorded, what needs to be uploaded as images, video or even what a specialized graphic designer or animator needs to do.  There are no messy word files, PowerPoint or prototypes going back and forth among team members.  SHIFTmanages everything.

    SHIFT will select those audios that are for a specific voice talent (for example, male voice #1) and then display only those audios to the male voice talent #1 for recording. Once each audio is recorded (by just clicking a button) the system crops, optimizes and uploads into the course.  It's simple because there is no editing of lengthy audios, no manual optimization and no need to integrate into the course.

    Compliance to standards such as SCORM is simple.  When you're ready to publish a course, clicking on the "generate course" will compile the course including all SCORM manifests, navigation, interface, automatically.  Localization is also very simple and straightforward.  Due do SHIFT's database architecture, exporting content, localizing and re-importing into a localized course is fast and straightforward.

    SHIFT has free, online, business hours (east coast) tech support, a built in, eLearning course on how to use SHIFT and a downloadable user manual.
