VAI Second-Generation Technology Drives Market Trends
As an Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS), our second-generation iLearning Platform differs radically from Computer Based Training (CBT). In effect, CBT utilizes a fixed learning path methodology incapable of detecting differing learner capabilities while ITS dynamically adapts the course according to the learner's existing knowledge base, skill gaps, preferred cadence and learning style, taking personalized and adaptive learning to a new level. Ultimately, ITS improves learning and retention, performance and productivity by 35% plus in comparison to traditional eLearning.

VAI iLearning Platform Complies to SCORM Standards
Compliant to SCORM standards, VAI Platform allows for system interoperability, and course content reusability on any platform. Furthermore, our platform responds to the SCORM vision which recommends that future iLearning platform developments be based on ITS technology.

Patent Guarantees System Uniqueness
Dr. Claude Frasson is the inventor of the first f irst USA patent on Distance Learning Based on Cognitive Agents (Artificial Intelligence). Our breakthrough, proprietary technologies result from twelve years of research in the field of artificial intelligence, education, psychology and computer science.

Unparalleled Domain Expertise Provides Credibility and Visibility
Since 1988, the ITS conference ( www.itsconference.org ) has been a forum for the interchange of ideas in all areas of computer science and human learning, attracting over 400 researchers globally. As founder and chairman of the ITS conference, Professor Claude Frasson, President of VAI, has earned international recognition as a visionary and opinion leader in the field of eLearning. M. Frasson has served as a senior judge for Brandon Hall and continues to provide consulting services for such notables as Revenue Canada, the Minister of Research, Science and Technology, the World Bank etc. VAI is also endowed with unparalleled expertise, as reflected by the educational achievements of its team members (Masters / PhDs).

Inter-University Collaboration Allows for Unparalleled, Multidisciplinary Expertise
VAI benefits from interuniversity collaboration involving over 70 researchers across 7 Canadian universities, allowing for unparalleled multidisciplinary expertise. These researchers make up the steering committees of some of the most renowned international scientific conferences, as follows: ITS (Intelligent Tutoring Systems), AIED (Artificial Intelligence and Education), and ICCE (International Conference Computing in Education).

Continued R&D Ensures Leadership Positioning
Continued innovation and evolution of existing technologies and methodologies guarantees VAI an undisputed and sustained leading-edge.
