Since 1973, throughout the United States TRC Interactive’s founder, Jay B. Bowden, has been a designer of experiential learning, and an early developer of distance learning. His innovations were recognized as early as 1976 when, for publisher Prentice-Hall, the company designed nearly 100 multimedia remote delivery training courses for technical staff, and won numerous awards both for design and training performance.

By the late 80s, he was creating computer based training courses and became widely known in the financial industry for the use of existing technology in ways that maximize the learner experience, promote retention, and increase interest. During the 90s his countless online program designs set standards for interactivity and creativity. Combining innovations in experiential learning with state-of-the-art software, his company, TRC Interactive, has produced training programs for thousands of banks nationwide., including industry leaders such as Citibank, Regions, Chase, Washington Mutual, and M&T to name a few, and designed two USDLA award winning programs, TellerSolution and BankTrainingOnline.

USDLA 2007 Award TRC Interactive was recently honored by the United States Distance Learning Association (USDLA) with the world's most prestigious distance learning award presented for excellence in distance learning.

Harrisburg, PA May 16, 2007 -- The United States Distance Learning Association (USDLA) presented its 2007 Distance Learning Award to TRC Interactive, the nation’s leader in interactive bank and credit union training, in conjunction with the 20th Anniversary Conference in Kansas City, Missouri.

These prestigious Global Awards are presented annually to organizations and individuals engaged in the development and delivery of distance learning programs. Included in the recognition ceremony were awards for 21st Century Best Practice, Best Practice for Distance Learning Programming, Excellence in Distance Learning Teaching, Outstanding Leadership by an Individual, Hall of Fame and Eagle Awards.

"As we celebrate our 20th Anniversary as a premier organization for the entire distance learning profession, we are honoring TRC Interactiveas a leader in the industry," said Dr. John G. Flores, CEO of USDLA. “TRC Interactive has raised the bar of excellence and we are truly honored by TRC Interactive’s contributions to the distance learning industry."

The USDLA Awards were created to acknowledge major accomplishments in distance learning and to highlight those distance learning instructors, programs, and professionals who have achieved and demonstrated extraordinary results through the use of online, videoconferencing, satellite and blended learning delivery technologies. In addition, this year’s awardees will be listed in the July 2007 edition of "Distance Learning Today," a quarterly supplement in USA TODAY. "Distance learning is transforming the American educational landscape, through on-line technology, video conferencing systems, satellite delivery and other media," Flores said.

TRC Interactive Develops Unique World Class Training Interface for Major Northeast Bank

Harrisburg, PA, May 1, 2007: TRC Interactive, Inc., the nation’s leader in interactive bank training, has developed a world class training interface for a Major Northeast Bank’s personal bankers and financial associates that make it easier and faster to assist the customer. With the improved efficiency on the system, the TRC Training Program encourages personal bankers to use the customer interaction to help identify ways to better serve the customer’s current financial needs. This unique project allows their staff to train on a system that grows over a period of years using customers that they become familiar with whose circumstances change as do real customers.

“The training isn’t all about the system,” says Jay Bowden, President of TRC Interactive, “but about how you can help a customer using the system tools provided and use the opportunity with the customer to recognize current and future financial needs. The training, therefore, is about the customer experience in the bank’s Financial Centers, so we created a series of scenarios using video and our unique transaction model which is not only self instructional but provides many opportunities for practice and skill mastery.”

Training scenarios are done in soap opera fashion. Through a series of videos, the participants are introduced to the customers and have become visually and experientially acquainted with customers just as they would in a Financial Center. The training program contains dozens and dozens of customers that have been created with various backgrounds and life circumstances (i.e. marriage, divorce, death, birth, college, home buying, etc.) that would bring them into the bank. Each time that a customer comes into the bank, the learner is encouraged to not only address the customer’s request using their newly acquired system skills, but also to recognize cross sell opportunities and make referrals where appropriate. The participant gets to interact with the customer on the screen and then must enter into the system as they would in the Financial Center.

The customer then responds and further continues the interaction. Periodically a TRC exclusive Action Maze allows the learner to make various choices on how to respond to the customer’s situation without being stopped or guided by the learning program. At the end of the Action Maze, the learner will be presented with all of the choices that he/she made appropriately, and will also be given key opportunities that may have been missed, meaning missed compensation to the learner. It has been a very successful practice tool after the initial learning modules have been completed.

Major Southeast Financial Holding Company Selects TRC Interactive To Redesign Transaction System Training

Harrisburg, PA, April 23, 2007: TRC Interactive, Inc., the nation’s leader in interactive bank training, has been selected by a major southeast financial holding company to redesign their custom transaction system training. The financial holding company has been a TRC Interactive customer since 2000, first purchasing their award-winning TellerSolution ~ Multimedia Teller Training Program®, and then selecting them to design the transaction training for their Sellstation Transaction System.

“Early on, it was necessary to distribute their training via CD Rom,” says Lorie St. Lawrence, Vice President of TRC Interactive, “because of technology limitations. When they merged with another bank in 2004, they were able to take advantage of the increased technology and higher bandwidth. They requested that the same version of TellerSolution® and transaction training be converted for a text based online delivery, still with the interaction and ability to learn to process transactions and save learner results.”

Since a recent merger with another big bank, the holding company has again been able to take advantage of new technology. With more than 2,000 branches in 16 states, they need to distribute quality training for the new tellers, and be able to update it easily as the financial industry changes. The holding company has selected TRC Interactive to redevelop their transaction training in an html/Flash-based technology, allowing for a higher level of graphics for learner interest, more interactivity than allowed with previous technology. The result is improved learning, and the ability to add audio in the future as their bandwidth improves, while benefiting from the easy distribution and tracking of the training through their enterprise Learning Management System.

Major North Carolina Based Bank Selects TRC Interactive To Design New Transaction System Training

Harrisburg, PA, April 16, 2007: TRC Interactive, Inc., the nation’s leader in interactive bank training, has been selected to design custom transaction system training for a major North Carolina based bank’s new teller and platform systems.

“The new transaction system will change the way branch staff currently process transactions,” says Jay Bowden, President and Lead Instructional Designer, “allowing for greater interaction with customers with the goal of increased sales opportunities. The training challenge is to address not only the transaction processing itself, but also the behavioral skill changes that will be required to improve the customer’s experience and increase cross sell ratios.”

Using a TRC-unique approach, the learners will be presented with a realistic customer scenario and be required to interact with the customer, accurately process the customer’s request, and recognize additional products or services that might be helpful to the customer. It minimizes the time devoted to training in the branch and yet maximizes their practice.

TRC Interactive is also designing an experiential “in-class” supplement as well as support material and “Job Aids” for the bank’s training that will make a completely integrated and comprehensive learning experience. From the sophisticated online transaction training designed around TRC Interactive’s award winning interactive model, to the supplementary Trialogues, experiential exercises, and Facilitator-led content, this blended solution is a near perfect combination of “high tech and high touch!”

The bank has been a long standing customer of TRC Interactive’s TellerSolution ~ Multimedia Teller Training Program®. As part of their custom training design, they will have the new transaction system training embedded into TellerSolution® so that not only will their existing staff be able to take full advantage of the training, but it will become part of their new hire training.
