Enterprise's core competitiveness comes from the ability of employees, and that is the reason why it is crucial to improve the competency of staff. However, traditional training methods, expensive and time-consuming, can no longer keep up with the development of enterprises. Responding to the call for low-cost and effective training methods, PowerCreator launched Training Automation, which covers the entire training process, including training program designing, progress tracking, performance evaluating, real-time data collecting, and training results assessing. Most parts of the training process are done automatically, reducing the workload of manual training to the least.

Compared to traditional classroom-teaching mode, the network training mode based on Training Automation can save 15% to 50% of the cost, of which 40% is spent on traveling and 10% is on equipment investment. Training Automation will save the trouble for employees to take training courses far away from their company, which greatly reduces the cost, and in business, cost reduction means profits earning.

A training system is worthless without scientific designing. However, the traditional way of designing takes a long time and requires big investment. Training Automation provides simple designing tools for users so that anyone, without any special training or hardware installation, can design his/her own training programs.

Training Automation can track and monitor the learning progress of employees so that the training manager will get a brief idea of how well the program goes. In addition, the graphs and tables generated by the system will inform the manager of the learning details of each employee.

One major characteristics of Training Automation is on-line assessment. Employees need to log on to the system to take the test on-line. The content of the test is divided into manager-choosing questions and system-choosing questions.
Manager-choosing questions are the questions chosen by the training manager from the question bank, and all the employees will have the same questions.
System-choosing questions are the questions chosen randomly by Training Automation system, and everyone will get different questions.
The on-line testing paper will be submitted to the system which then marks the objective questions. Subjective questions need to be marked by the trainer and comments may be added. Then employees will get feedback in form of system messages, which promotes the interaction between the training manager and the employees.

Training Automation provides various data bases built on multi-dimensional analysis. It can not only create bar charts or pie charts of training program, courses taken and test contents for each employee, but can also record their system login and visiting details for decision-making reference.

TThe data storage of Training Automation mainly depends on the back-end database which adopts the AES128 bit algorithm to improve the security of data storage. Based on Internet technology, Training Automation uses B / S (Browser/ Server) so that the user only needs IE browser to access to the system, saving the cost for installation and equipment maintenance.
