(VCB) is a new generation of e-learning authoring technology (marketed by 724HelpDesk.Com and developed by InterAction USA) that is optimized for the creation of professional looking interactive software simulations, general purpose training modules and performance based skill assessments. Industry averages suggest that for every hour of developed CBT (computer based training), it takes 30-90 days or more of human effort with conventional authoring technology to create quality, highly interactive courseware. In client experiences with VCB, 1-2 days or less is all it takes to produce an hour of CBT saving you time, resources, and money!

How can VCB save so much time? Quite simply, the tool allows you to focus on the content with a set of specialized features that optimizes your work and automates many of the tedious details of creating instructionally well-structured learning. Use VCB to create new learning materials for any type of product or information needed by your company or use it to modify our existing library of titles customizing them to your specific needs. A flexible, cost-effective, and time-efficient tool is a necessity in today’s business environment where every budget dollar matters.

Testimonial:

"After researching several similar tools, we absolutely put our faith and trust in the Visual Course Builder software. We needed something that would be easy to use and affordable. VCB was the only tool that offered both. It has been our experience that we can create 1 hour of quality computer based training in as little as 6 hours at a fraction of the cost the competitors advertise. Visual Course Builder has made the impossible, possible for us."
Says - Debbie Weedon, CIS Program Coordinator, Department of Corrections
