Review by: Jim Allard on June 08, 2011 :
I have been in the training world for more than 30 years, and I think this book has done an excellent job of distilling the 'techy" jargon into an understandable process. The design lets you decide if you need to read the whole book or just get the information you need to get started--you can do either.

I highly recommend this book for those thinking about modernizing their approach to presenting materials to their employees. It won't be long before everything will be done this way. Nice job, I enjoyed it and am using it.
