Computer Based Technical Training

February 22, 2000 by Dana Roode

Can’t find time for a computer workshop? Explore the world of on-line, interactive computer based training, right from your browser on your desktop. Computer based training is all about getting exactly what you need, exactly when you need it. Many UCI Faculty, staff and students have already discovered CBT@UCI, a valuable training resource funded by cooperation among UCI’s major academic schools, A&BS, and NACS.

There are topics for everyone, from Beginning Word to Advanced PowerPoint 2000. Technical subjects, such as application development and programming as well as the popular Microsoft’s MCSE certification path are current and available 24 hours a day.

CBT is interactive. Pre-test assessment, discovery questions embedded in the text of a course, and simulation exercises all help to keep you, the learner engaged. CBT courses are also organized into curricula — groups of courses on related technologies.

Taking a CBT course requires that you download a plug-in or “helper application” to your hard drive. In several computer labs around campus the plug-ins have already been put on the PC’s for you.

Visit UCI’s CBT site http://cbt.uci.edu and take a course today, or stop by NACS’ Response Center to purchase a $10 introductory CD with a selection of introductory courses for use from home. For more information about CBT, call NACS’ help desk at 824-6116.
