Access Technologies Group, Inc

Access Technologies Group (ATG) is an e-learning pioneer and leader in technology-based soft skills training with extensive experience helping public, private, and non-profit organizations develop – in both incumbent and potential employees – the attitudes and behaviors necessary to enter, re-enter, and succeed in the workplace. Simentor®, ATG’s patented simulation authoring and delivery tool, provides interactive, Flash-based soft skill simulations. Simentor® simulations strengthen successful interpersonal behaviors and best practices using real-life situations, enabling learners to practice contextual employability skills at their own pace, on their own time, as often as necessary, and in a penalty-free environment. A friendly mentor provides meaningful feedback tailored to the choices made by the learner. This feedback is reinforced by the facial expressions, tone of voice, and words spoken by the characters with whom the learner interacts. A wealth of useful content can be printed for ongoing reference, and other relevant material can be made available for download from within the courseware. These simulations work well in a blended environment by complementing and augmenting existing training curricula.
