The Challenge

Cyberscribe was tasked with providing documentation for a variety of audiences, including a 1500-topic online help system for owner/operators and their administrative staff, and training workbooks for body shop managers and mechanics. For many end users, Pathways Enterprise represented their first experience with software in the workplace. Not only would training materials be used to introduce entirely new habits to the work day, they were also expected to turn intimidating change into a positive learning experience.

The Cyberscribe Solution

Cyberscribe produced two classroom workbooks: one for trainees and one for trainers. Written specifically for body shop technicians, the layout and content of the workbooks were carefully crafted to maximize audience acceptance of new technologies. Instructions were simplified to downplay complexity, and tips and review notes were added to promote retention. To confirm that learning objectives had been achieved, a quiz was inserted at the end of each section.
