Enterprise Video Platform for Seamless Video Learning in Organizations

This blog explores how an enterprise video platform can enhance organizational learning by offering seamless video streaming, on-demand content, and interactive features. It highlights the benefits of integrating video content with learning management systems (LMS) to improve accessibility, engagement, and knowledge sharing across the organization.

Today’s ‘digital learning’ is not just about applying technological tools or an engaging medium like video to your learning content. In the words of Deloitte’s Josh Bersin, modern organizational learning means “bringing learning to where employees are,” making learning content more accessible to employees, when and where they need it.

In other words, the new era of organizational learning is not just a shift in learning tools; it is a shift towards an employee-centric design and experience. This trend necessitates a focus on an employee’s journey of learning at work, using tools that seamlessly incorporate learning into the everyday flow of work, rather than a one-off approach that doesn't account for an employee’s holistic learning journey or experience.

In this blog, we explore how an enterprise video platform can support your organization’s learning and development initiatives, making it easier to deliver just-in-time, on-demand, and interactive training to your employees.

The Need for an Enterprise Video Platform

For this shift, every organization using video for training, learning, or development needs an enterprise video platform or a video learning content management system (LCMS) to capture, stream, store, manage, and distribute learning video content across different organizational units from a consolidated platform.

An enterprise video platform provides employees easy access to all learning videos and non-video assets in a YouTube-like platform that is highly accessible and seamlessly integrated with your learning management system, as well as other line-of-business applications like CMS, CRM, and video conferencing tools.

VIDIZMO enterprise video platform and LCMS

VIDIZMO is a streaming video solution that provides a comprehensive enterprise video platform and learning content management system to fulfill end-to-end needs for video capture, streaming, indexing, search, processing, management, distribution, and more.

In a simple, easy-to-use YouTube-like interface, VIDIZMO provides a highly accessible, interactive, and engaging enterprise video learning platform that all your employees can use for video-based personal learning or even organizational training or development tasks. Your employees can access all video for learning from any device, browser, or player.

For L&D teams, VIDIZMO allows you to:

• Record or live stream videos for any organizational learning, including employee training and onboarding, product knowledge videos, how-to videos, educational webinars, sales and marketing presentations, industry best practice videos, etc.
• Break down longer training videos in shorter micro learning content for people to return to quickly recap specific topics/ concepts, use them for specific problem solving or simply review video summaries to refresh their memory on prior learnings.
• Document industrial knowledge from retiring/ outgoing employees or subject matter experts across the company to preserve employee knowledge and prevent brain drain from your organization.
• Incorporate interactive learning elements like quizzes, surveys and polls within learning videos to increase user engagement and participation to promote active engagement instead of passive viewing.
• Use detailed platform analytics to track user-level engagement, overall viewing trends, video completion rates/ drop-off rates, learning scores or quiz performance, and much more – all of which helps L&D teams gauge employee response to different types of videos and improve content based on prevailing trends.
• Share and disseminate learning content via VIDIZMO through single sign-on access for all employees across the organization as well as secure external user access for partners or customers through secure platform access.
• Facilitate users with unique and powerful search capabilities that allow search inside video content for any spoken words in the video or onscreen text appears during a video.
• Provide automatic transcription and subtitles for all videos using artificially intelligent speech recognition technology so that each video is supported with onscreen closed captions as well as an editable transcription file. Additionally, VIDIZMO offers the capability to transcribe videos in a range of foreign languages, store and manage video in different languages, and show transcription in different languages.
• Enable seamless integration with any existing business applications such as your learning management system, CMS or CRM.
• Automatically capture and upload all video conferencing recordings from Skype, WebEx, Go-to-Meeting, etc. to VIDIZMO to help utilize any online meetings or presentation for learning purposes.
• Grant completion certificates for completed courses by using sophisticated analytics to ensure that all required learning videos are watched from beginning to end or up to the required length.
• Provide powerful integration between VIDIZMO and your LMS to enable a blended learning experience that leverages capabilities of both platforms to optimize learning outcomes for the learner (discussed in detail later).
• Enable new and innovative video technologies like object recognition or character recognition to attain more insights from the video such as locating speaker faces in video or recognizing text displayed in videos or flagging videos with certain words.

For your employees, VIDIZMO allows them to:

• Increase instances of collaborative learning by providing teams a platform to record and upload employee-generated content for peer learning and social learning.
• Promote knowledge sharing among themselves to increase instances of peer learning, which is often preferred by millennials as opposed to top-down hierarchical training or learning scenarios.
• Access the platform for any day-to-day or one-off learning needs in a simple and easy-to-use YouTube-like interface that your employees are already accustomed to using in their daily lives for various learning and knowledge sharing activities.
• Search for videos across the library and as well as inside video content in a quick and efficient Google-like search.
• Receive video suggestions based on related content, past activity, recommended videos, or video liked by peers. Additionally, a robust integration between VIDIZMO and your LMS can help provide suitable video suggestion based on user profile, interest, etc.
• Gain quick, easy and convenient access to all learning video content in one platform using the same login credentials as all other business applications by using single sign-on to avoid a new set of usernames and passwords.
