Gone are the days when classroom training was the only option.Learning has gone through rapid and unprecedented changes, following the profound advances in technology.In the last two decades, utilizing internet and its astronomical reach, primary distribution of educational contents have been over only web portals.

Unfortunately, the delivery of this content remains archaic and tedious, testing one\'s patience and challenging the attention span. Major challenge areintermittent internet connectivity and different user experience with and without internet is hindering the ability to access learning content anytime, anywhere and clarify doubts while learning.

Here comes Tribyteoffering a robust platform thatovercomes the limitations of legacy learning systems with its passive video content and one-way communication.

For instance, one of our clients, Apollo Munich, the renowned insurance company, was providing IRDA mandated training to all its insurance advisors at its centralized office. An arduous task, given the geographical spread and inconsistent timings of insurance advisors. Now, with the help of TriByte interactive learning platform, Apollo Munich provides comprehensive training to its insurance advisors over Tablet, Smartphones and Web portal. Thus, today,advisorscanstudy and get certified, all at their own convenient time and place on a device of their choice unfettered by connectivity challenges.

Transforming eLearning Industry

While getting the right people on-board has been a challenge from the initial days, Seethaprasad managed to recruit an enthusiastic bunch of youngsters, who were trained to be the best.Somemore experienced candidates, fascinated by the concept, camethrough referrals and relatives. The interns undergo a compulsory 45-day activity-based training. Seethaprasad believes, \"Rather than formal training programs, we do activity-based training. New hires are made to complete activities on a daily basis with the help of the mentor. After 45 days, they will be part of the core development team working on the product features\".

TriByte provided learning platforms localized in Kannada language for those tablets. And the result was delightful.
