With California Surveying & Drafting Supply's new online video training courses, cloudDVDs, companies can train individuals or groups of employees at a fraction of the cost of instructor-led training.

 
What are cloudDVDs?
 
A cloudDVDs is a modern, much more capable, virtual version of a traditional book. A cloudDVD is not limited to static text and images, nor is it bound by physical constraints. Rather, a cloudDVD is dynamic; it exists online, in "the cloud," and is most often made up of a combination of crystal clear instructor-led HD video, interactive animations, downloadable documents, text and graphics.
 
A cloudDVD collection is stored in a password-protected digital library, and is available to you anywhere you have access to the internet, including through a smart phone. An employer can purchase hours of viewing time, and assign a specific number of hours to each employee or have them grouped together. Any available cloudDVD title can be added to your library, and any unused hours expire after one year.
 
What type of content is available on cloudDVDs?
 
A wide variety of cloudDVD courses are available to train both novice and experienced users. Choices can be made from the following categories:
  • Human Resources
  • Microsoft
  • MicroStation
  • Spectra Precision
  • Trimble
  • Technical
  • Adobe
  • Autodesk
  • Business
  • Education
  • Google
