Why webinars work wonders for your business – top tips
More and more of our customers are having their training delivered virtually.
The flexible nature of webinar technology for both trainer and delegate allows a variety of benefits for the whole organisation:
For IT – webinars offer an immediate response to queries, less stress on other internal communications, easy delivery of application skills training and the ability to record sessions for replay at any time.
For HR and Trainers – webinars can engage people in low cost training and can be used for staff development across many departments or short training sessions. For example many short briefings that HR deliver can be delivered this way. This reduces the cost of someone travelling hundreds of miles for a 30 minute session.
For Sales – more meetings in a day due to less travel time and cost, coupled with the ability to enhance visual experience for clients and a global reach for small and large companies. Webinars can involve multiple stakeholders across different locations.
