Interactive PDFs – the new channel for learning

Carole Bower, Senior VP Learning, Edvantage group

Our ability to learn effectively from pages and pages of text is limited yet still we see 3 inch manuals adorning the workplace shelves of many organisations. It used to be that e-learning was the ubiquitous alternative to making content engaging.

However, Edvantage group, in conjunction with a major Norwegian publishing house has pioneered the use of interactive PDFs for educational purposes. This new medium provides a vast array of opportunities for taking what was traditional paper based learning and communication documents and making them interactive.

In this session we will share tips on how you can benefit from using this medium as another channel for interactive content and how Edvantage group’s authoring tool, CourseBuilder plays a role to drive efficiencies in development.
