Description

Copy and rename an existing Progress Tracker database to create a Progress Tracker database for your product. Typically you will want to copy and rename the database "sportsSampleModules.mdb" that delivers with Progress Tracker. See Creating a Database for more.

Optional: If you plan to have multiple module books, create a front end book. You can choose one of the front end sample books included in the installation, or create one from scratch using the Progress Tracker Catalog. Name the front end book anything you choose. Customize the appearance to suit your training, but be sure the module type remains one of the available types.

See Creating a Front End Book for details.

Create your training content module(s). You can begin with one of the sample modules included in the installation, or create the books from scratch and include the necessary Progress Tracker elements from the Progress Tracker catalog.

See Creating a Module Book for details.

Use the Progress Tracker Administrator to link your modules into the training system, setup chapters and sections (see the Progress Tracker Hierarchy), specify the bookIdentifier property of you module, and set various Progress Tracker options for available features, completion methods, etc.

See the Progress Tracker Administrator Help for details.

Optional: Create a Certification Exam for your module(s).

Test your training system by accessing its modules through the front end book (if applicable) or by opening the module book directly. You can press F1 on the various screens to examine user level help along the way.
