Interactive Training Videos

Adding iteration, evaluation, resource linking, and more to your video

Through LMS or Web Based video hosting, the dimension of user interaction can be added to your videos, opening up a host of new opportunities to add value to your training materials. For example, adding chapter menus to a scene can provide your learners with more control over their course without breaking them out of the scenario. This can also effectively turn training videos into handy quick-reference work materials after training is completed, or make the video iterative to accommodate an AGILE based software development cycle that will kick out new functionality over time, allowing you to “add chapters” rather than totally redo the training each time another development cycle completes. 

Additionally, interactive options can allow for the inclusion of things like knowledge assessments throughout the video (recordable when housed on an LMS), choose-your-own-adventure style video games (literally), and quick links to resource tabs placed strategically to allow the user to learn more about specific topics as they come across them. All of these possibilities and more become available when you add the dimension of interactivity to your training video investment.
