ITA has partnered with Altus to develop a wide range of tools and technologies, collectively known as RipCoRD, designed to meet the diverse knowledge transfer needs of even our most demanding customers. Whether it's a flexible learner interface, pinpoint content-based searching, a corporate eKnowledge repository, or the ability to deliver rich media on a Pocket PC, RipCoRD has the technology to deliver the solution you need.

vPresenter
The vPresenter learner interface is the most robust, flexible, and easy to use in the industry. Each presentation includes video/audio, table of contents, synchronized scrolling transcript, slide navigation, and other functionality to enhance ease of use. Our unique course structure allows for searching and bookmarking across multiple presentations, along with the option of downloading PowerPoint files and other related documents. In addition, the vPresenter interface can accommodate larger video windows for hardware demonstrations, or screencams for software demonstrations. ITA customizes vPresenter for each client to meet specific functionality and corporate identity requirements.

vSearch
The heart of RipCoRD is vSearch, which enables precise searching of all content and direct user access to the exact knowledge you need. vSearch is much more powerful than traditional metadata-based approaches, since searching is based on the actual content. Data is extracted from each presentation, including the text in all slides and all spoken words in the transcripts, to create a corporate knowledge base that is fully searchable.

Learners are able to find not only what they need, but can access content at the precise point of interest-at the course, presentation, slide, or sentence levels. This enables anyone to find and access precisely what they need to know when they need to know it. vSearch transforms a collection of individual courses or presentations into a highly valuable corporate knowledge repository.

vPortal
For those clients who require an Internet hosting solution for their rich-media presentations, ITA offers vPortal. vPortal enables audio and video streaming to remote audiences, supporting both Windows Media and Real players. In addition to providing security services and a customizable interface, vPortal also supplies detailed reporting of usage and bandwidth consumption.

The ITA media hosting solution allows you to deliver your content immediately, with no hardware investment or networking considerations.

Mobile vPresenter
Today's learners are increasingly mobile and require mobile learning solutions. Recognizing this, ITA offers Mobile vPresenter (MvP) to enable mobile workers to learn wherever they are, using handheld Pocket PC devices (such as the iPAQ). MvP is an application that easily installs onto the Pocket PC and utilizes the built-in Pocket IE browser and the Pocket Media Player to deliver audio presentations with synchronized slides and transcripts, plus a table of contents for navigation.

Presentations can be downloaded and synced to the Pocket PC or streamed directly with a wireless LAN adapter or modem. And the best part is that MvP can link directly to vSearch so that remote learners can search through the corporate knowledge repository to find the information they need. Mobile vPresenter's first-of-a-kind mobile learning capability finally realizes the promise of anytime, anywhere learning!
