Objective
The target audience and their needs are: Small Development and Information Systems groups; People who don't have 3 days to spare away from the office; People whose projects are not synchronised with the two events a year when training is available; People whose organisations are too small to justify purchasing in-house training; All organisations who want to train staff exactly when the need arises; Individuals who want to train at their own pace wherever they prefer.
The Objectives are to: take a proven, existing set of Managing User Requirements training material and transform it into a prototype multi-media CBT package; do detailed evaluation of the product and its delivery system with 100 people at a mixture of organisations including SME's, non IT sector organisations and larger software development companies; deliver two language versions of this CBT package and demonstrate techniques for further localisation; produce a product that is more cost effective than the current conventional 3-day training event; deliver a product with multiple entry and exit points for use as training material and on-line help; prototype an innovative Internet based delivery and technical support system which will include free demonstration and evaluation copies, on-line discussion groups and technical support.
ACTIONS
The Project brings together: Q SET (SPI trainers and software developers); 3Soft (SPI consultants and software developers; Electric Paper (multi-media experts) and Pat Fehin (subject expert in User Requirements). Aside from project management and reporting, the project will have 4 phases; requirements from the market-place; product design; product development; product evaluation. During the project, 100 people will be trained while evaluating the prototype software. In addition, many more people will be introduced to the subject matter and delivery mechanism at exhibitions.
EXPECTED IMPACT
The project deliverables will include techniques for: development of SPI multi-media training products in general; development in new languages; delivery and support via Internet. This will lead to more organisations in the EU developing and receiving new SPI courses in new languages in multi-media format.
