Viewing captioning in smartbuilder-based training

The older training is provided using Adobe Presentations, which gives you the option of reading the notes/captioning on the side. Is there a similar option in the newer smartbuilder-based training?

I haven't found any captioning in those new training modules, but I'm glad you raised the issue. I have frequently used the text for two main reasons:
  • I need to "listen" to a lesson when I'm in a setting where audio isn't an option
  • I want to copy/paste text from the script (generally into a forum post or wiki article)
I was quite disappointed to see that feature omitted on the newer training lessons.

Can you point me to an example of the new training modules so I can follow up with the product manager?

In the Finance area of the Record-Keeping and Technology Support site, the following courses are the new SmartBuilder-type courses that don't have captioning: There may be others, but those examples should show you what we're talking about. Compare those with an older Macromedia Breeze course, such as The Role of the Stake Clerk.
