How does it work?

The self-running CD needs a PC / laptop, with a CD-ROM drive and a sound card. The programme will run on any version of Windows. Speakers would also be required for larger groups.

The screen menus are designed to be easy to read from a distance.

Selecting and clicking a button runs a sound clip.

Nearly all screens allow a choice of three other voices. This means there are some 450 clips from which to choose !

450 clip selection!

4 Voice choice

It it easy to use?

The programme features simple navigation (left or right mouse buttons ), or key presses. We have experimented with a touch tablet on the lap top. This allows you to select material while talking to your group. We aim to provide economically priced tablets if demand is sufficient.

PC specification

Any PC with CD-ROM (double speed minimum) and sound card, with Windows 95, 98, 2000 or XP operating systems.

Who developed it?

Phone Master was developed by Anglia Training Associates and The APR Experience.

The prototype actually existed 5 years ago but it took that long to find an experienced Telephone Skills Trainer for this collaborative idea to come to fruition.

This Trainer Controlled Audio idea came from the original video version developed in 1995. More details...

Can I have my own version?

You may like the idea but want material that exactly matches your situation.

So you want the voices of your type of customers, talking about your products or services.

  • Multiple voice tracks
  • Scripts produced from your own recordings or researched by our consultants.
