Innovate or perish. From our inception in 2005, Aten's foundation has been built on established and proven scientific research — collaborating with NC State, Virginia Tech, Duke, and applying findings from Harvard, Michigan State, NSF, ESA, and the Federation of American Scientists.
In our early attempts to bridge the global educational divide, we built one of the first platforms in the world enabling students anywhere to learn from teachers anywhere. That work led to development partnerships with NC State and Virginia Tech research teams on the impact of virtual immersive learning — and to enterprise deployments with JPMorgan Chase, Eisai, Biogen Idec, and others.
A platform built specifically for learning experiences — not a generic LMS retrofitted for video. Web, mobile, and XR delivery from a single source.
Every scenario maps to a measurable competency. Branching, constraint, and consequence are designed to elicit the behavior — not test the trivia.
Multi-language, multi-region, low-bandwidth fallbacks. The same simulation runs for a New York analyst and a Mumbai trainee.
In 2007 we introduced Cerebellum — our assessment and data tracking platform. It enables embedded assessments and data tracking, including stealth assessments, giving our systems the ability to deliver instant formative feedback as well as in-depth diagnostic and summative analytics with adaptive intelligence.
Measurement happens during the simulation — not as a quiz at the end. Learners reveal their know-how through what they do, not what they recognize on a multiple-choice list.
Models that observe behavior, surface gaps, and reshape the next moment of learning to the individual. Difficulty, pathing, and reinforcement adapt continuously.
Track an individual from hire through years of practice. Surface what's improving, what's plateauing, and what intervention will move the needle next.
Cerebellum enabled the transition from solely multiple-choice questions — where it's largely content knowledge that's being assessed — to a more accurate measurement of practical application of knowledge using embedded assessments during simulations, serious games, and decision-making scenarios.
