Hi Everyone,
I’ve been testing this out for a few weeks. I was hoping to find others folks out there using this in a college level environment. Specifically in a academic library setting. Is there anyone out there using Captivate in this type of environment?
Indeed, but maybe this is not the real place to find them because this ‘community’ is not very much alive. I can only speak from my experience, my colleagues in the university college were not very motivated to integrate eLearning assets in their courses. There are many possible causes. Particularly Captivate in Europe has not been the focus of marketing since about 10 years, and if they are present it is for companies, never for education.
I was an Adobe Education Leader when in college, and in that function I did present in Europe on conferences for education people, but all those events have been abandoned since many years as well.
If you want to talk more, you can always contact me directly.
Thanks for the responses. I’m surprised not find a bigger higher ed community here.
This might change in the future considering the world we now live in. I’m getting a ton of requests from all industries for training on Adobe Captivate, including higher ed.

In my previous career I was teaching in a university college and have used Captivate for all types of courses, not for library. That happened in blended learning, distant learning, project-based learning, peer learning. Can you give some more details, I am from Belgium.
I am not currently in a post-secondary environment but in the past, I have used Captivate at the high school level as a teacher and at the university level as an instructional designer. I am currently using it in the private sector for training within a large manufacturing industry.
At the university level, I did not assist with any projects related to the library but I did work with professors from several subject areas to help create online courses for their students.
