E‑learning software

Software for your e‑learning

Use the new module “E‑learning” to digitally train your employees. Create an e‑learning course using Microsoft PowerPoint or integrate existing presentations. Integrate content from the eDMS / eQMS, such as specifications and standard documents, and design your exams individually using a variety of options (e.g. multiple choice, multiple response, fill in the blanks, puzzles, drag and drop and much more) directly from PowerPoint. The e‑learning is delivered to the user via the task inbox and can be completed from there.

If you are already using our “Training Management” module, the new e‑learning is available there. Having successfully completed the learning control, the qualification level of your employees is automatically updated and displayed in the qualification matrix.

How do you benefit from the E‑learning software?

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about E‑learning

Can ordinary, already existing PowerPoint presentations also be used as e‑learning?

Yes — existing PowerPoint presentations can also be used. Furthermore, we offer as a service the conversion of existing PowerPoint presentations into an e‑learning. Moreover, ready-made e‑learnings can be purchased from PTS Training Service.

Does e‑learning also work for users who only have sporadic access?

Yes — the users have to be created as users in the d.3 archive as before and need, for example, a “computer with web browser” to log in to the training portal. The assigned e‑learnings are then displayed there. It can also be a shared computer or tablet PC in the production facility.

If e‑learnings are also possible for users with sporadic access, are certificates of qualification stored in Training Management?

Yes — for both online users and offline users, the corresponding qualification certificates are created in Training Management when an e‑learning course is completed.

Is the license only necessary for the creator of the e‑learning or must all users purchase this license?

Only the creators (authors) of e‑learnings require a license. The result is an e‑learning solution that can be used by everyone, without any connection to iSpring Suite and without a license.

Will it be possible in future to store PPT as SOP or further applicable documents instead of “only” Word and Excel?

The use of PowerPoint presentations will be supported in future versions of SOP Management. However, we will have some limitations here, as we will not have the placeholders for inserting document information (e.g. titles) in presentations.

What does a proof of successful e‑learning look like?

If an employee has successfully completed an e‑learning, the employee will receive a certificate, just like in the module “Training Management”, which consequently changes the current version of the associated specification document or the associated additional qualification to 100% within a qualification matrix.

What are the advantages of e‑learning software for a company?

Using an e‑learning software offers you as a company many advantages and opportunities. Learning in the form of e‑learning, for example, not only reduces costs, but also makes the entire learning process flexible and controllable. Tracking results and managing your employees is also greatly simplified.

Additional advantages include:

Location and time-independent learning (online)
Significant savings (no travel and accommodation costs)
Possibility of interactivity
Individual electronic exams
Better overview of the learners
Flexible adaptation to specific needs
Easy integration of multimedia content (videos, audio, etc.)
Combination of different forms (blended learning)
Learning adapted to prior knowledge possible
Different prior knowledge can be better compensated
Flexible and multilingual learning possible
E‑learning increases independence
Standardized quality
Use of a tool with many functions

The e‑learning software solution has many advantages for companies. They can use it to create and manage online courses so they don’t have to hire expensive external consultants or developers. The software also has features like gamification that encourage learners to engage more with the material, making it easier for them to learn new things.

What is the purpose of e‑learning software?

Software solutions, such as the e‑learning software solution, are designed to help companies manage their content and processes. The best e‑learning software solutions are easy to use and have a wide range of features.

Who are the users of this type of tool?

Users of this type of tool include any employees who are to be trained.

How is it different from other learning management systems?

The e‑learning software solution is different from other learning management systems because it is designed specifically for organizations that want to create and manage online courses without hiring external consultants or developers. Other LMSs may not be able to handle this type of task as well as our product — they may not have all the features needed to create an effective course or manage learners effectively.

The e‑learning software solution is a platform that allows you to create, manage and publish your online courses. It is also a powerful management tool for your organization’s e‑learning content.

The software is available in conjunction with Training Management and includes a number of features:

Planning of individual training courses and training measures
Easy creation using Microsoft PowerPoint
Integration of content from eDMS / eQMS possible (e.g. standard and default documents)
Integration of documents, audio files and videos to clarify the learning content
Combination with the electronic learning control
Individual design options for performance assessment (e.g. multiple choice, true/false, multiple response, fill in the blanks, puzzles, drag and drop, etc.)
Easy processing of the electronic exam via delivered tasks in the system or via a web-based training portal
Automatic confirmation of the result of the electronic exams to the Training Management module
Automatic updating of employee qualification levels within a qualification matrix
Use of a web-based training portal

Is the confirmation of an answered question (right/wrong) also possible via the existing learning control when linked to the module “Training Management”?

Support for learning controls is planned. Thus, on the one hand, there are considerably more question types to choose from and on the other hand, the user always receives feedback after each question and at the end of the learning control.

With the introduction of e‑learning, does the function of “normal” learning control still exist? Are there more question options available?

Yes — at this point we also plan to provide support for the learning controls that have been created. The existing question options will not be expanded further, so that no new question types are supported here.

Can e‑learnings be versioned?

Yes — the e‑learnings are also versioned and managed in the d.3 archive.

Is e‑learning also possible from outside without VPN (e.g. for external service providers)?

There is nothing to prevent the presented training portal from being installed in your company network or DMZ (specially secured section of your company network). This would also allow access to the training portal from outside without VPN.

What does the process look like if an e‑learning is not passed? How often can an e‑learning be repeated? Is it possible to notify the supervisor after the Xth fail?

With version 3.0 we will not yet support this limitation. In a subsequent version, however, it will then be possible to configure how often a user may repeat an e‑learning session and which group of people will be informed in this case (training coordinator, supervisor).

What is generally understood by e‑learning?

E‑learning means that learning is supported by digital media or tools. This includes the preparation, presentation and distribution of learning content in e‑books, blogs, forums or e‑learning courses, for example. Digitally prepared learning content is often made available and managed on a learning platform. This considerably facilitates and improves internal training, especially for companies.

What is the e‑learning software solution?

The e‑learning software solution is a platform that allows companies to create and manage online courses. It allows them to create content, manage their learners, and track their progress.

An e‑learning software is often used in conjunction with other solutions such as DMS (Document Management System), QMS (Quality Management System), LMS (Learning Management System), CMS (Content Management System) or IDM (Identity Management).

What is the difference between e‑learning software and other similar solutions?

There are many different types of e‑learning solutions on the market today, but they all have one thing in common: they enable the creation and distribution of content that learners can access through a platform. However, there are some important differences between the different types of solutions. Our experts will be happy to check with you in a live WebCast whether our e‑learning software is suitable for your company.
