http://intel.stage.verite.com/1806A11/ENG.html

Intel had a need to produce effective on-line training for some of their newest product releases.  The key objectives were that the training was experiential in nature and conveyed strong sales concepts as well as very technical information regarding the products.  Localization into worldwide languages and results tracking were also key to their objectives.  Vérité produced three flavors of training for sales, product and technical audiences, and provided innovative approaches to courseware and experiential exercises that ensured students understood the course.  The localization was handled by incorporating database technologies into the courses.

The purpose of this course was to train Intel resellers on the latest Intel 955x/945x Express Chipset and the components and technologies that accompanied this release.
