Captivate Training: Bootcamp

The Adobe Captivate Bootcamp training is a comprehensive course that pairs and integrates both of our essential skills classes.  

This course is a complete foundation that starts at a beginning level and progresses to an intermediate level of mastery.

Create interactive E-learning simulations, demonstrations and assessments in this four-day Captivate training. Learn to create complete presentations using objects such as text captions, hotspots, interactive elements, voice narrations and audio. You will also create simulations using Captivate's built-in screen capturing capabilities for building rich interactive user experiences. Your instructor will also cover the essential equipment to create polished video and audio narrations with cameras and microphones.

Go beyond screen capture and achieve superior results with engaging interactions, improved workflow and learn to use Photoshop and Adobe Animate to extend your learning content. Learn to apply consistency across your entire project using object styles and master slides. Add video to your projects and synchronize it across the slides by altering timing and transitions. In this course, we will cover advanced topics such as object styling, system and user-defined variables, master slides and tracking results through hosted solutions.

Your instructor will cover the pitfalls, and the best practices will be followed so that you are creating professional-grade E-learning applications that can be properly viewed on the web, CD-ROM and other media in this Adobe Captivate class.
