ViaTech’s Active Reader – utilized by CAE to train thousandsof civil and defense crew members every year – now supports video andinteractive file types. CAE began its implementation of Active Reader in spring2018, and the platform has since been integrated with its existing enterprisesystems.
Active Reader is a device-agnostic enterprise applicationthat provides secure, digital access to training documents and empowers usersto engage with their content. The platform gives users the option to pre-loadtraining materials (including the newly supported file types) to their devicesso that they can be viewed with or without an internet connection.
By shifting to a digital delivery approach, CAEsignificantly mitigated its security risk and eliminated the costs associatedwith traditional printing and shipping. Now, the organization is able tofurther expand its training offerings to include video and interactive content.
Introducing interactive content to CAE’s library of PDFs,graphics and other file types has resulted in a more well-rounded trainingexperience. Users have the ability to mark up, draw, highlight and organizetheir materials, as well as record text, audio and video notes.
