Something Old, Something New

We began shouting from the Highest Mountain in 2002. And on Day 1, the founding team already had more than 30 years of interactive learning experience. The Highest Mountain executive team was into corporate eLearning way before the “e” became fashionable!

In our “previous lives”, we created more than 200 interactive learning projects for Global 1000 corporations such as Texas Instruments, Hewlett-Packard, Nortel Networks, Fujitsu, Nokia, Frito-Lay, NEC, and Ericsson.

We shipped hundreds of thousands of CD-ROMs and broadcast billions and billions of bytes on the broadband byways.

Something Was Missing

Through our previous experiences, we were often frustrated with the high cost and long turn-times of producing effective interactive media.

Typical production costs ranged from $20K to $75K per instruction hour for an engaging, custom training title. Three to six months was the average development cycle… assuming a well tuned, no-nonsense team.

Such budgets and turn-times quickly bounded the feasibility of many projects.

Custom highly-interactive multimedia learning was good for:

• Very large distributed audiences (thousands of employees)
  
  
• Content with a long shelf-life (1 year or longer)
  
  
• An audience that needs to be motivated (entertained)
  

It was not suited for:

• Medium sized audiences (hundreds to small thousands)
  
  
• Short shelf-life content (3-9 months)
  
  
• A motivated, “just the information please”:, audience

Then, Along Came CaptiVate

We created CaptiVate to meet these latter needs. To fill the gap left between less interesting text & graphics and costly custom multimedia.

CaptiVate can be turned quickly to reach your audience while the information is still new and needed. And, your knowledge workers will appreciate the direct, self-paced, skip-what-you-don’t-need nature of CaptiVate’s non-linear navigation.

• Synchronized Media: Video, audio, transcript and slides are synched tightly to create a robust, high-media seminar-like environment; Just like the classroom we’ve all been in and learned from.
  
  
• Low Cost per Hour: Allows a cost-effective solution for smaller target audiences or high-turnover positions.
  
  
• Fast-turn: Gets the information in your audience’s hands while the message is hot; BEFORE your product is upgraded to the next rev!
  
  
• Non-linear Navigation: No frustration here. Your sales team and knowledge workers will appreciate the search-and-jump capabilities built into the CaptiVate player.
