Curricula for Corporate Learning supports the Avatar interactive Q&A learning object, enabling AI-driven oral practice or assessment between learners and an AI Avatar. This helps reduce the human resources required for training and assessment while lowering the cost of trial and error in real-world scenarios.
*Note: The Avatar learning object is disabled by default. To enable it, contact your MaivenPoint representative. Each tenant is allocated five Avatar attempts per month, with each attempt limited to five minutes. If you require additional attempts, please contact your MaivenPoint representative.
