Why train online?

  • 1. Save time

    Think about how much time is spent by a member of staff travelling to a training venue. Now multiply that by the number of staff who receive the training. That probably adds up to a lot of time - time that could be spend on their core role. Train online and your employees do not need to leave their desk - and you get all that time back.

  • 2. Save money

    Apart from the time spent away from performing their core role, sending staff on training is expensive. Transport and overnight accommodation costs can be considerable, and even coffees and lunches soon add up. With INSET online you pay a flat fee for each delegate to attend and, typically, this is lower than the basic cost for a conference room - even before you add on all the extras.

  • 3. Save the environment

    It is becoming a bit of a cliché, but reducing carbon emissions should be a consideration for every organisation. For an online event no one needs to travel, therefore there is no carbon footprint other than the energy used by the computers that connect.

  • 4. Greater access to your best trainers

    You know the deal - your best trainers are in high demand and there are just not enough days in the year to meet that demand. By training online trainers get all of the time-saving benefits that delegates do. They can train from home or work and can avoid spending endless days in dreary hotels. They can train more often and will be fresher and more motivated.

  • 5. A proven, reliable method

    INSET online have been working with major clients for over six years and in that time we have demonstrated that online training really works - that’s how we keep our clients! We successfully deliver over 1000 online events a year, with up to 30 events a day, although we have the capacity to do even more. And we receive consistently good feedback from delegates, trainers and our clients.

How does it work?

Vertical Tabs

1. Commission your event

Simply phone us with the details of the course you want to run and we will do the rest. The more information you can give us about the objectives of the event the better.

2. Trainer and writer training

In order to effectively write and deliver an online event, your writers and trainers need to be coached in the use of the online system. We will spend as long as necessary ensuring those involved are confident and enthusiastic before they write or deliver training.

3. Materials development

Whether you require an event based on an existing face-to-face session or a completely new event, we will work with your writers and design the event to be the most effective and engaging online experience possible. Online training is, of course, quite different to face-to-face, and it is our experience which will ensure that your events are a success every time they run.

4. Room construction and rehearsal

Once materials have been supplied, we will build your online room and work with the trainer to make sure they are confident and ready to deliver their event. We will invite the trainer online, walk them though the materials and activities and give them an opportunity to practice delivery before they go live.

5. Pre-event support

We will send detailed joining instructions to all delegates to ensure they are ready to begin the event at the scheduled time. The system we use is very straightforward and does not require any plug-in or software installation. All that is required is a browser with Flash Player installed, and a broadband connection.

6. Technical support

If delegates do have any difficulties getting online, we provide full technical support via phone or email. We are usually able to quickly resolve any technical difficulties delegates may have, but we can also make a recording of the event available to delegates in the event they are unable to attend the live session.

7. Event hosting

During the online training, someone from INSET online will be looking after the event, helping delegates with any technical issues, working with the trainer to make their life easier, and managing the register. All of this ensures that the event will run smoothly, and your trainer will be able to concentrate purely on delivering the content.

8. Post-event support

We can provide bespoke feedback forms for the delegates so that you can get detailed information on what they thought of any aspect of the event. We can also provide materials for the delegates to download if required.

Like most good ideas, INSET online was born out of a need. We had a company that had to deliver a large amount of training to busy teachers who did not have time to leave the classroom and travel to training sessions. We were also finding it very expensive to deliver training in hotels around the country. For this reason we decided to try live training online.

Once we realized it worked, we approached one of the major UK Exam boards about delivering their training to teachers online and have been working with them ever since - it’s been over six years now.

We have expanded our operations to include the other two main exam boards and a number of smaller organisations within the education sector. We now deliver well over 1,000 events a year to more than 20,000 individuals.

Events delivered per year:
1000+
Delegates trained per year:
20,000+

We feel that our track record speaks for itself, but here is what some of our customers say about us:

  • "The support Inset provide in the design of the conference, the materials, training to deliver effectively and hosting the event live is superb. The hosts are there in the background providing coninual support, feedback and encouragement throughout the live event, to make the experience smooth and enjoyable for everyone involved. With professionalism and humour they provide a very effective service. I would recommend them to anyone interested in delivering live training over the internet."
