Web-Based-Training (WBT)

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

Web-based training (WBT) refers to any structured learning program delivered via a web browser, without requiring software installation. WBT courses are accessible from any device with an internet connection, making them ideal for remote teams and distributed workforces. They typically include multimedia content, interactive exercises, and assessments. Web-based training is a subset of e-learning and is widely used for corporate training, compliance programs, and certification courses.

SlideLizard LIVE adds live interaction to web-based training sessions: participants can ask questions, respond to polls, and share feedback directly through their browser — while you present in PowerPoint.

Animated GIF

An animated GIF is a looping image format that displays a short sequence of frames in succession, creating the appearance of movement without requiring a video player. In presentations, animated GIFs can add visual interest, demonstrate a process, or inject humor into a slide. Unlike video files, GIFs play automatically and loop continuously without needing to press play. PowerPoint and most modern presentation tools support animated GIFs natively, though file size should be managed to avoid slow loading.

Master view

Master View in PowerPoint allows presenters to edit the Slide Master — a top-level template that controls the default fonts, colors, backgrounds, and layouts applied across all slides in a presentation. Changes made in Master View propagate automatically to every slide that uses that layout, making it the most efficient way to apply brand guidelines and maintain visual consistency across large presentations. Master View is essential for template creation and company-wide design standardization.

Tutorials

A tutorial is a structured learning resource that guides a learner step by step through a process, concept, or skill. Tutorials can take many forms — written guides, video walkthroughs, interactive modules, or one-on-one coaching sessions. Unlike formal courses, tutorials tend to be focused on practical application, helping learners achieve a specific outcome quickly. They are widely used in software onboarding, technical training, and skill development platforms.
