Captivate 3 Training

Question

hi everyone, our company purchased Captivate 3 months ago and
have been trying without much luck to find training - online or in
person on how to use the product to create different kinds of
learning activities. I've seen the overall tutorial, and every
webinar i've participated in by Adobe is a sales pitch rather than
a "how-to." any helpf would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

This is the captivate 3 user guide in .pdf form. (it's 408
pages) I think it will probably be exactly what you need. I worked
through much of it just like a tutorial when I first starteed with
Captivate 3 ( my first version) There is also a "getting started"
guide and quite a few element specific tutorials right on the adobe
site.

really there are lots of great tutorials for captivate 3 on
the adobe site...you just have to dig a little
I've only found 2 books specifically addressing Captivate 3
the above mentioned and "Adobe Captivate 3: The Definitive Guide ".
I think both books have their strong points. I bought them, but I
honestly kept referring to my user guide and the tutorials on the
site...
Perhaps you might look into upgrading ?(generally great deals
if you recently purchased an earlier version) ...and jumping right
into 4...My first Captivate experience was with 3 and I loved it,
but I think if I were you, I'd find a way to go ahead move up to
4...so many new and improved features it would be IMHO worth your
while to start there...
