Off-site Training
Soho Editors Training provide training in our Soho premises, but are also able to run these courses at your own office, facility or home, anywhere in the world. This can prove cost-effective for companies outside of London who don't want to put their staff up in hotels for the duration of the training course. It could also be useful for busy people, where their preferred course is not running here at a time they are able to make. Maybe you feel that a one-on-one tutorial session could be useful, if so, off-site training could be the best solution for you.
The off-site training can take place if the hardware needed to run the programmes is present (our trainer will bring the training software with them), or we can bring the necessary equipment to you. As with the courses run here, we will provide all training materials, such as course books and media. The cost of off-site training varies depending on:
- Location
- Length of training time required
- Number of people being trained – we recommend a maximum of 6 trainees to 1 trainer
- Time spent travelling by trainer
- Equipment and training material requirements
It is the responsibility of the client to provide accommodation for the trainer/s (if required), arrange and pay for flights / trains etc, and to cover any reasonable expenses.
If you think that off-site training may be the best solution for your needs, please contact us and we'll discuss what will make the most sense for you.
Bespoke Training
There are a huge number of reasons why a bespoke training package may be more suitable for individuals or companies requirements. These could include:
- Task / workflow specific training needs
- Where a persons role only requires certain aspects of a particular system
- Training required on connectivity / workflow between systems
- Training on new versions of already adopted programmes
- Refresher courses
- Training required for niche or older systems
- Creative as opposed to technical training
We are an entirely independent organisation, with good relationships with the majority of manufacturers and software developers. So, in addition to the certified Apple courses, we are able to, and do, provide training for most post-production platforms. Some of the manufacturers we are able to support include:
Adobe
Avid
Maya
Discreet
Media 100
Leitch*
Autodesk
Quantel
Digidesign
Alias Wavefront
AMS Neve
And many more…
* Soho Editors Training has been nominated as a Leitch Post-Production Training Centre.
We are able to offer training and support of the highest quality, on whatever platform it might be. This is due to our length of service to the industry and the relationships we have with our industry partners. Our expertise and understanding of post-production technology and systems is unrivalled, and we have an expansive knowledge of what is needed to train people on effectively. Most importantly, through the enormous breadth of talent we have available through the agency, you can be assured of a skilled, experienced and knowledgeable training staff.
Wherever possible and/or relevant, we will use trainers that are certified by the relevant manufacturer, and run the certified courses for a given product. However, depending on your needs, this is not always suitable. A bespoke training programme may be more appropriate.
Please contact us to discuss your bespoke training requirements. We are highly knowledgeable about the post industry, so are able to make sensible recommendations about what might be needed, and are very flexible in our approach. In the unlikely event we're not able to assist you with your training for whatever reason, we should be able to point you in the right direction of someone that can help.
