- Property Assessment Review Panel CBT (PARP)
A Computer Based Training (CBT) CD developed in Authorware to facilitate the training of individuals who volunteer to serve as members of the British Columbia Property Assessment Review Panels. more...-
Designed to replace single day "Training Sessions", this self-paced CD covers all aspects of the Property Assessment Review Process. Topics include Roles and Responsibilities, Assessment of Real Estate, Conducting a Panel, and Financial Administration. Lesson Checks for each major topic and an end of training Performance Check provides feedback to the user and assurances to the PARP administrators that all members have successfully completed their training. The use of Authorware's structured flow line concept allowed for rapid prototyping so that the client could visualize the training structure quickly and receive feedback from potential users. In the software's inaugural year of use, it won the "2004 Minister's Award for Excellence and Innovation", and has proven so effective, a companion version was created to train panel members for the Greater Vancouver Transportation Authority (GVTA) Parking Site Tax Appeal Panels.
