MasterGraphics to Offer New e-Training Products Through Partnership with Digital School
Nov. 30, 2010- MADISON, Wis. - MasterGraphics has entered into a partnership with Alberta, Canada-based Digital School to offer new e-Training products for Autodesk software: MasterAcademy On-Demand and MasterAcademy Virtual.
MasterAcademy On-Demand is a self-paced, online Autodesk software training program which lets students study on their own schedule, using visual, auditory and hands-on learning methods. Milestone tracking along with competency-based progress ensures that students stay focused to complete their program.
MasterAcademy Virtual is a collaborative learning platform which brings together students and instructors through the use of the Internet. A virtual classroom interface enables students and instructors to interact in real time. Instructors are brought into contact with students from around the globe, increasing class sizes and reducing overhead costs.
"Global e-Training (GeT) programs were built using 25 years of technical and vocational training experience, combined with a large amount of e-Training research," said Steve Wenzel, Digital School business manager. "What makes Global e-Training so effective is that it appeals to all different types of learning styles and can be adapted as desired to students needs. The GeT programs include: interactive and engaging methodology for increased retention of information; competency-based progress to ensure understating of topics; extreme cost effectiveness, as courses are not limited to class sizes or start dates; and learning coaches to monitor progress and promote completion."
"MasterGraphics is proud to add MasterAcademy On-Demand and MasterAcademy Virtual to our learning resources," said Mark Lackovic, MasterGraphics vice president of operations. "This further enhances our position as a leader in offering only the best training solutions to our clients."
