Abstract:
This manual is a guide for the Training Technology Cost Analysis Templates TTCATS software program. TTCATS contains seven individual subprograms, or templates, that customize the LOTUS 1-2-3 spreadsheet to help project the cost of delivering training to geographically distributed locations. The cost estimates pertain either to delivery method and equipment configurations that have been independently determined to be appropriate for an anticipated application or to configurations recommended by a companion expert- system-based software program called TECHSELECT. The first six TTCATS templates calculate costs for a variety of distributed training delivery method and equipment configurations asynchronous delivery via computer-based training with desktop microcomputers, asynchronous delivery via computer-based training with portable or laptop microcomputers, asynchronous delivery via computer conferencing, synchronous delivery via audio conferencing, synchronous delivery via video conferencing with land-based microwave communications, and synchronous delivery via video conferencing with satellite-based communications. The last template calculates the cost of transporting trainees to a central training site.
