Videos get the same message across every
time and, when it comes to training, this is very important!
The Learning Process Has Four Fundamental Steps
- Decide on the skill
- Learn the skill
- Practice the skill
- Review the skill
Training Videos Provide A Valuable Learning Tool
- Well thought out and structured to provide professional
delivery.
- Accurate and authoritative.
- Available when you need them - No waiting for the
next course to be arranged!
- Learners progress at their own pace - They can rewind
and watch again.
- Suitable for individual learning, small groups and
courses.
- Bring the subject to the point of delivery.
Training videos wont produce instant experts. Staff
will need to practice their new found skills. Training
videos can provide the necessary knowledge for staff
to become experts more quickly.
Training videos also provide a useful source of revision!
The use of training videos is almost limitless. If
you need someone to learn, you can probably do it with
a video. Whether it is to show methods of working, explain
a process or safety training. Videos can be used to
support product manuals and the narration can always
be added in different languages to help get the message
across in today's global market.
Training videos are not suitable for every training
situation. Steve Feeney Productions want you to be happy
with our work and we'll tell you if we consider that
your needs are better served by an alternative method.
Training Videos Are Cost Effective
Training can often cost hundreds of pounds
per participant. The initial outlay for a training video
may cost more but it it will pay for itself very quickly
in the right circumstances.
Things To Consider
Do make the video cover one subject - if the video
is too long and over complicated the learner may not
absorb the message.
Make the subject interesting. Use some creativity to
make the lesson more memorable.
Do include a summary at the end - generally three bullet
points is a good guide.
If the end product is to include a lot of information,
consider taking advantage of the DVD menu and split
the material (or lessons) into easily manageable modules.
Consider including self assessment material so that
the learner can see for themselves how much they have
learnt. This could be a set of questions printed in
the sleeve notes or, if you really want to impress,
go for an interactive learning experience.
Quality and Delivery Format
Depending on their length and the quality
required videos can be delivered as a DVD, Video CD,
and Internet ready files or VHS.
Steve Feeney Productions work with high
specification digital equipment which is ideal for distribution
on DVD. If our clients want "full broadcast"
standard we can hire the necessary equipment which will
affect the price.
