CBT Platform — Computer Based Training

The KS Smart Solutions Computer Based Training Platform is a structured, role-based digital training system for technical, procedural, and systems training built for organisations where training accuracy, traceability, and scale are operational requirements, not administrative conveniences.
Developed and deployed with HAL for the HTT-40 aircraft programme. Scalable to any technical training requirement across defence, aviation, government, and industrial organisations.
  • Role-Based Course Architecture

    Every learner accesses content filtered to their specific role what a pilot needs to know, what an AE officer needs to know, and what a technician needs to know are fundamentally different. The CBT platform organises the full knowledge domain of any system into role-specific learning paths ensuring every learner gets exactly what they need without wading through irrelevant content.

  • Comprehensive Course Library

    Courses organised by type — CBT, VR-linked, and specialised procedural modules and by category: airframe, avionics, powerplant, maintenance, emergency procedures, and more. A structured taxonomy that scales as content grows.

  • Advanced Search and Filtering

    Keyword-based search, role filter, module type filter, and topic filter — any learner finds any content in seconds. Search results surface the most relevant content first, reducing time-to-training across large content libraries.

  • Multimedia Interactive Modules

    Rich multimedia content — 3D system walkthroughs, annotated diagrams, video demonstrations, branching scenarios, and interactive procedural guides. Content that explains complex technical systems in a way that static manuals cannot.

  • Assessment and Certification Engine

    Competency assessments, scenario-based evaluations, and timed tests with configurable passing criteria. Automated certification on successful completion. Every assessment attempt is logged with timestamps, scores, and answer data — creating a complete, auditable training record for every learner.

  • Instructor and Administrator Tools

    Trainers create student profiles, assign learning paths, schedule assessments, monitor progress in real time, and deliver targeted feedback through the platform. Administrators manage content libraries, user access, and organisational reporting from a dedicated admin console.

  • Performance Analytics

    Individual and cohort performance data — completion rates, assessment scores, time-on-content, and competency progression — available on dashboards for trainers and administrators. Identify knowledge gaps before they become operational risks.

  • Mission Replay Integration

    For simulation-linked deployments, the CBT platform integrates with simulator session recordings — allowing trainees to review sortie replays alongside the relevant CBT content for a closed-loop debrief and learning experience.

Deployment Models
On-Premise — Full platform deployed within the client's own IT infrastructure — for organisations with classified content requirements or restricted network environments.

Cloud-Based — Hosted deployment with centralised access for multi-site organisations — no local server infrastructure required.

Hybrid — Core platform on-premise with cloud-based content distribution for multi-location access.

Embedded in Simulator Facility — Integrated directly with simulator infrastructure — CBT and simulation as a unified training environment.

Customisation Options

  • Content domain — any aircraft, vehicle, weapon system, or technical equipment
  • Role structure — any number of learner roles with distinct content paths
  • Assessment design — custom competency frameworks, passing criteria, and certification standards
  • Branding — fully white-labelled to client organisation identity
  • Integration — with existing TMS, LMS, HR systems, or simulator platforms
  • Language — multilingual content support
  • Access control — single organisation, multi-unit, or multi-organisation deployment
