Multimedia Development

It has been said that the most rewarding learning experience happens when all of the 5 human senses are involved. Although multimedia training does not engage all of our senses, it does create a highly interactive, visually powerful, individually adapted learning experience. The computer provides the stimulus by using techniques such as graphics, animation, audio and interactive video and when combined with solid teaching strategies, it provides a rich learning experience that helps learners retain more information. Studies have reported the multimedia approach saves approximately 25% - 50% of time over traditional classroom training while increasing retention by the same percentages. Learning gains have been shown to increase 38%-55% over classroom training. And training compression occurs with multimedia, with the average student completing the course 60% faster.

Why Multimedia Training?

SilverLining offers state-of-the-art multimedia training development as part of its overall commitment to its service solution practice. We believe after the technology you have invested in is installed, the true ROI of the investment lies in the total, comfortable use of the hardware/software. Although classroom training is always an alternative, there are benefits to CBT that augment the classroom experience:

• Consistent delivery
• On demand availability
• Direct learner control
• Self-paced learning
• Increased job proficiency
• Decreased training resources resulting in lower costs
• Tailored feedback


For the past 7 years, our multimedia training team has created over 30 training courses covering numerous topics for a broad cross-section of U.S. industries and government/military. Across the board, they have confirmed that multimedia makes the most significant impact when:

• The training audience is large and dispersed, possibly worldwide
• Scheduling employee time away is difficult
• Material is best presented in self directed mode to better comprehend abstract concepts
• Your business requires mandatory consistency
• Mass training is mandated by government regulation
• Live training requires too many resources; too long a delivery window

Our efforts have produced multimedia training for the following applications:

• IT hardware operation
• IT software operation
• Manufacturer recommended maintenance training
• Field Service technicians training
• Technical product reference Tool
• Marketing of businesses
• Navy seaman training in SCORM 1.2 Compliance
• Government agency information dissemination to internal employees

There are significant advantages for CD-ROM Training vs. Web Based Training:

• Multimedia allows for increased interactivity – more test questions and exercise types
• Multimedia provides for a wider range of sophisticated teaching designs
• Multimedia has fewer restrictions from bandwidth constraints


What is SilverLining’s Multimedia Development Process?

We invest all our efforts in making the multimedia “finished product” learning experience exceed our client’s expectations. Our custom development process is to:
- Prepare an initial layout and schedule for review and sign-off by the customer
- Design the application including flow charts, graphics design, user interface design, complete storyboard and narration using Subject Matter Experts (SME’s).
- Complete production and deliver the finished multimedia CD-ROM
As an option, SilverLining can enhance your multimedia CD’s to run in Netscape or Internet Explorer web browsers. The Director viewing screen is delivered within the browser window with the same functionality that is available when run directly on a PC or Mac. This implementation will support use over the Intranet with reasonable response times.

What Sets Us Apart?

There are hundreds of companies on the web advertising their multimedia skills. If you look closely, only a very few provide custom training and even less in the complex and demanding IT environment. Our developers have had field experience and understand how to present information to the technical staff, how to display video to isolate what is critical in working with hardware or software and how to flow and transition technical information to enhance the learning experience. And we have the marketing skills to provide great promotion CD’s for business clients as well.
