eLearning solution benefits

Quickly create high-impact training content

Empower nontechnical subject matter experts to create courses using nothing more complicated than Microsoft PowerPoint. Adobe® Presenter software makes it easy to add voice-over narration and multimedia content to presentations from within PowerPoint. Adobe Captivate® software enables anyone to create how-to demos of software procedures, simply by recording the screen.

Create interactive tutorials and simulations

Turn passive viewers into active participants by inserting interactive simulations, software demonstrations, or scenario-based training created with Adobe Captivate. Adobe Captivate works seamlessly with other Adobe products, enabling you to publish directly to Adobe® Connect™ Server to deliver, track, report, and launch Adobe Captivate content within Adobe Connect and Adobe Presenter software.

Easily incorporate existing AICC-compliant content or content created in Adobe authoring tools, such as Adobe Captivate and eLearning Suite.

Easily update content

Manage course content using the fully searchable Adobe Connect content library, which makes it easy to find, retrieve, reuse, and update existing course material.

Deliver training via virtual classrooms or self-paced courses

Develop curriculums that drive results by combining live and self-paced training. Create relationships within your courses that enable learners to test out of and bypass content they have mastered, or use prerequisites to enforce your high-level instructional design strategy.

Customize virtual classroom layouts

Use customizable tabs to organize virtual classroom flow and content. Easily select and arrange content windows for each layout, making the flow of your class easy and engaging.

Provide instant access

Boost participation by eliminating technical barriers. Adobe Presenter and Adobe Captivate automatically publish your courses using Adobe Flash® Player software, already installed on over 98% of Internet-connected desktop computers, so learners can instantly access Adobe Connect without cumbersome downloads.

Use breakout rooms to focus discussions

Within your virtual classroom, you can create multiple subclasses, also known as breakout rooms. Breakout room participants can speak privately within their subgroups using VoIP or telephone audio. Use a default template or create custom layouts for each room, providing specific content appropriate for each breakout. Hosts can monitor all breakouts, move between them, and broadcast messages to all participants across room boundaries.

Enable all learners to practice at the same time

Adobe Connect enables everyone in attendance to complete simulations and quizzes and interact with content at the same time while remaining inside the virtual classroom experience.

Provide the same interactivity in recorded sessions

Learners who missed a session don't miss out. All interactive, hands-on components — such as quizzes, simulations, and links — remain interactive even in recorded classroom sessions and meetings.

Count on industry-standard security

Adobe Connect Server uses the industry standards SSL and TLS to provide 128-bit encrypted channels for HTTPS and RTMPS. Maintain security and control privacy by defining and controlling which applications can be shared.

Reuse learning assets with templates and content libraries

Choose any previously created Adobe Presenter or Adobe Captivate course from the content library to teach within your virtual classroom. You can teach the entire course or allow learners to go through it at their own pace. Learners can take quizzes on their own, and their results will be recorded in the Adobe Connect Training system.

Save layouts as templates for future reuse

Virtual classroom layouts and content can be saved as reusable templates for personal or systemwide use. Content saved in templates becomes instantly available in new virtual classrooms created from those templates.

Track participation, progress, and course effectiveness

Enable learners to browse an online catalog for the courses, curriculums, and virtual classes your training department offers. Set permissions to control who can see certain listings. You can also implement an optional approval process with workflow notifications to help ensure learners have met specific requirements, such as prerequisites or manager approval, before they can enroll in a class.

Manage enrollment and notification

Quickly and easily manage course or curriculum setup using robust enrollment management capabilities. Send automated e-mail notifications and reminders based on learner progress.

Assess course effectiveness with robust reports

The new report generator provides custom fields and filters so you can get a meaningful overview of the progress and current status of all enrolled learners. Enable authors to gauge the effectiveness of their courses through customizable reports. Slide-level and question-level feedback indicates where revisions are needed.

Track individual learner progress

With a new home page and curriculum view, learners can view their assigned training and easily track their own progress through learning paths. When it's time to bring the groups back together, hosts can review breakout room content with the entire group in the main room.

Enhance training sessions by integrating Adobe Connect with third-party systems

Work with any audio provider

Universal Voice lets you integrate Adobe Connect with any audio provider or teleconferencing platform. Record any telephone-based audio along with your web conference, and save telephony costs by streaming telephone-based audio to VoIP participants. Additionally, advanced audio capabilities are available through partner integrations with Avaya, Cisco Unified MeetingPlace, InterCall, MeetingOne, and Premiere Global Services.

Integrate with Microsoft Outlook and IBM Lotus Notes

Easily schedule, start, and join Adobe Connect meetings right from your Microsoft Outlook or IBM® Lotus Notes e-mail and calendar. Use integrated address books, availability lookup, and recurrence features for increased efficiency and productivity.

Integrate with Learning Management Systems

Adobe Connect integrates with several of the top Learning Management System (LMS) providers. Use Adobe Connect with a third-party LMS to provide enhanced online learning features and capabilities. In addition, allow users to easily manage their Adobe Connect meetings and courses from within the LMS environment.
