What is OmegaLand Educator Enterprise
OmegaLand Educator Enterprise is a product that utilizes a network environment to provide OmegaLand Educator with additional features, such as running collaborative scenarios with multiple trainees and managing training history.
With OmegaLand Educator Enterprise, you can manage the educational simulator running on your system on a single server, so unlike the Standalone version, you don't need to insert the installation medium and install the simulator on a separate client computer.
When you select the simulator you want to learn from a client PC that can connect to the server, the OmegaLand Educator system will determine and automatically install it only the first time or when an upgrade is needed. This makes maintenance tasks such as installation and version upgrades easier.
Furthermore, it is possible to assign roles to users (trainees, instructors, system administrators), manage learners' learning history, issue certificates, and make flexible education group formations. These features are not in the Standalone version.
