- Subject: Video Training
- We began implementating video training in addition to our courses about one
- year ago. At first, we did not have much success, but it is starting to pick
- up now. The key has been a great deal of marketing and getting people to
- understand that it is a form of training. Following is some of the things I
- have done to begin implementing this as a viable form of training.
-
- First of all, we have a monthly school-wide newsletter that I put short
- articles in about the videos that are available as well as when we receive new
- videos.
- Second, when anyone registers for a class, we send out a reminder notice a
- couple of weeks before the class and along with the reminder I include a sheet
- of suggestions of what to do before, during and after training to make it
- successful and, of course, video training is good for either introductory
- purposes or follow-up, reinforcement and additional practice. Third, during
- the class, I stress several times that the students can do video training at
- any time for additional practice as well as to learn new things and I have the
- videos for that particular class setting at the front of the room during
- class.
-
- Things we are doing for the future include setting up a certificate program
- which will have guidelines for remaining current with technology and hours of
- training needed. Video training will be a part of the program track in order
- to earn a certificate.
-
- Also, I have begun studying Just-In-Time learning which focuses on the use of
- technology to train. I hope to get some testing software in place because
- people have to know what their skills are and where they need additional
- training for training to be effective. Then, if they could do pre- and
- post-testing it would be even easier to promote video training to more and
- more people.
-
- Video training is not just setting someone in front of a video. It is a part
- of a process and it will not be successful if you just say here are the
- videos, come and view them.
-
- I hope this helps a little. We have a long way to go, but I think we have a
- good start and are on the right track. If you have any questions or
- suggestions, please let me know.
-
- Happy Holidays.
