Deutsche
Bank
Health,
Safety & Environment eLearning suite
delivered
A major new eLearning project has been delivered
to Deutsche Bank in the UK.
Running across the bank's intranet and launched
from their custom LMS, the program comprises
a suite of interactive modules including topics
such as Fire & Emergency, Hazard Awareness,
Health & Well Being and Stress Awareness.
Language independence
The program has been developed as a separate
'program shell' drawing ALL its text and audio
content from external files. This enables Deutsche
Bank to create an unlimited number of alternative
language versions without re-programming.

The tool
provided by TNA automates the creation of new
xml files directly from the storyboard
script Word files. So, to produce a German version
for example would simply require our client
to follow these steps:
- translate
the English Word scripts to German
- generate German xml files using the TNA tool
- record a German version of the narration,
from the translated script
- edit and save German mp3 files, using file
names from the script
- place German xml and mp3 files in the appropriate
folders
The eLearning
would now be able to run in English and German!
The use of xml files also enables Unicode fonts
to be specified for the display of ‘double
byte’ and ‘right to left’
languages such as Arabic. |
