Distance Learning

 

The reduced costs and increased productivity of onsite training are clear, but videotape and CD-Rom distribution of distance learning have not proven successful and are slow to deploy, expensive to distribute, and difficult to monitor. Whether offering compliance-driven training, skills enhancement, or a full range of educational courses, the key to success in any kind of educational or training program is interactivity. Students need to make a connection with both the teacher and other students and management needs to be track participation.

 

With Superflex and Datacast XD, and using open-standards DVB-S/S2 technology, IDC’s IP multicast satellite solutions integrate video, voice, and data onto a single platform for a flexible, cost-efficient solution for distributing media-rich eLearning content. The broadcast nature of satellites make it an ideal for point-to-multipoint delivery to geographically dispersed sites, particularly where a network has unreliable terrestrial broadband, and the bandwidth efficiencies achieved from IDC’s DVB-S/S2 enable huge cost savings and better signal quality. Offering either one-way or two-way satellite connectivity, scalable and adaptable networks, hybrid video and data capabilities, conditional access and secure encryption, live and on-demand programming, and both MPEG-4 and MPEG-2 capabilities, IDC has the most comprehensive and reliable distance-learning capabilities available.

 

IDC offers both highly interactive distance learning solutions in partnership with One Touch Systems where high bandwidth satellite or terrestrial return networks are available as well as a number of highly cost effective one-way IP push systems.
