New Training/Induction Tool

Monday, March 19th, 2007

Login ScreenNot every website launched is after a large number of visits or top search engine positioning, as our recent launch for Capricorn Weston Drilling illustrates.

We have created a tool that slashes the time taken for new staff to be inducted, and at the same time CWD can use it to keep existing staff up to speed as well.

CWD can add staff, assigning them usernames and passwords, so they can even log in if they have some downtime while out west.

Courses and modules can be added as simply as uploading a spreadsheet, and those modules can be interrupted at any time and the staff member simply picks up where they left off next time they log in.

Question pageIf any question is answered incorrectly the participant is immediately notified and these are also logged for reporting purposes.

It’s quite a powerful tool, substantially reducing the time taken to conduct these assessments as well as providing a centralised place to report not only on an individual’s results but also aggregate performance across the entire organisation.

New Website: QREX

Monday, March 12th, 2007

QREXThe Queensland Resources Expo is being held in Rockhampton from 23 to 26 May 2007, and today their new website is unveiled!

As is the case with event websites, it is in a constant state of flux, with new information being added all the time. Updates are simple courtesy of our Content Management System, allowing the organisers to change any page or add new ones as the need arises.

Online registrations are coming next, and these will feed directly into Rockhampton Tourist and Business Information’s event software, meaning no double-handling of attendees’ details!

Save as PDF from Office 2007

Saturday, March 3rd, 2007

A handy feature in Microsoft’s new Office 2007 is the ability to save anything as a PDF.

The tricky part is that it doesn’t come on the CD - you have to download it from Mirosoft.

It is an official Microsoft download - apparently it got separated due to threats from Adobe. Must keep those legal boffins happy…

Once you have downloaded and installed it, making a PDF file is as simple as using the Save As command. There will be an extra option in there for PDF or XPS!

Save as PDF from Office

Sending documents as PDF (whether via email or for posting on the web) is much more reliable as just about anyone can install Adobe Reader (if the don’t already have it), whereas not everyone will be able to open your Word/Excel/Publisher file and be able to see it as you do.
