The problem with training videos is that the people making them have no idea what they’re doing. I feel like training videos are very helpful but they’re very boring and if companies would actually make them enjoyable and entertaining to wash people might learn something from them. But when you have a bunch of suits that have never actually worked anywhere in their life make these things. This is what happens.
Counterpoint: I prefer straightforward no-fuss training. My employer tries to make their corporate training interactive and fun but it doubles the time to complete them. A 45 minute training could’ve been cut down to 20 minutes if they removed all the fancy animations, videos, and “games”.
