Hello Michelle,

Actually, Toolbook is a fairly common package used for CBT
(computer based training) development. I would suspect that
knowing how to use this tool would be a plus on your resume.
There are many people who have technical writing skills (or claim
to have), who are proficient in the latest help authoring tools (or
claim to be :), but there are fewer who have experience in CBT.

I would try to look at it as a challenge and a great learning
opportunity, and dig in.
