Solutions Page - Video Tools
Video material has always been seen as a way to keep any style of learning relevant, interesting and stimulating for the learner. But as the "Training Films" that were popular in earlier years lost their effectiveness, they became prohibitively expensive to rent or buy; however, the Client requirements remained:
- add value to an informal and stimulating learning environment
- set benchmarks for specific situations and skills, relevant to the particular Client
- provide a vehicle for interactive learning through customised exercises
- motivate participants and their managers through direct involvement
- support “blended learning” approaches (web, video, e-coaching etc)
- support “train-the-trainer” models for sales coaching and leadership
So Harrison Consulting responded by pioneering a unique approach which makes use of the client's own resources for actors, locations and props. For each Client assignment, we produce a "battery" of short clips to address specific skill-sets or needs. These short "vignettes" are much more flexible in use. Our production process is highly efficient and cost-effective. Details and examples can be found in our Showcase Pages (click here).

The continuing COVID 19 pandemic has emphasised the importance of leveraging technology for remote team management. Online learning has accelerated and tools for virtual collaboration abound. Field/remote based individuals and mixed teams can benefit from customised, self-paced refresher packages, in the absence of regular coaching from their leaders. See our Solutions and Showcase Pages on "Virtual Support" for more...
We also possess a video library of generic skills illustrations, using non-client-specific scenarios and case studies. This allows us from time to time to offer video support material for clients who are happy to work with less customised materials. In this case the materials are licenced to the client for a specific period or a rental charge is built into the overall project costing.
