Training Videos
Properly created and utilised, training videos are a powerful way to educate staff and/or communicate a message, their strength lying in providing a means to cut costs and maximise a budget.
Training videos are a powerful way to deliver a uniform message to staff or customers on a wide variety of topics.
Video is an ideal medium for training:
- It demonstrates techniques and ideas clearly and visually
- Studies show that people absorb messages better visually than by reading about them
- Video standardises your message, ensuring that everyone receives the same training
- Video is cost-effective: it eliminates the need for travel when your audience are geographically spread.
- Group size: video can be used where gathering enough staff to form an effective size group is an issue (e.g. staff inductions)
Training videos take a variety of styles and formats, which can include:
- Scripted training delivered by trainers, actors or voice-over artists
- Interviews with key staff
- Role plays and demonstrations
- Coverage of speeches and sessions at seminars and conferences
- Case studies
