All Courses Feature:
Product Operations
Most of our operations courses are taught by freelancers who, like you, use the equipment in a day-to-day post production or news environment. Because of this working knowledge of the product, they provide much more than the typical feature overview course. Instead, they provide you with specific instruction on how to use the product in your application, be it news or post.
All of our operations courses are also available as on-site classes. We can come to your facility and train your staff on your equipment, addressing the operational needs specific to your operation. On-site courses are not limited to the products listed here in the catalog. Training professionals are available to conduct classes at your facility on any Sony product, even those which may no longer be manufactured.

Distance Learning Courses
A large portion of any company's training expense is that for travel. In many instances, travel costs exceed those for course fees. Managers considering whether or not to send a staff member to training have to balance the benefits along with the full costs including the less tangible ones such as covering for the employee who is away from the office. Sony Training Institute has long recognized this dilemma and has responded with shorter duration classes and distance learning courses in the form of videotape, computer-based and on-line self instruction packages.
Advances in internet technologies have given us the means to increase the effectiveness of our non-classroom based distance learning course offerings. We can now deliver eTraining, live on-line training with full interactivity between instructor and student. eTraining eliminates the travel requirement while at the same time minimizing classroom time. eTraining courses, including the popular Video Compression Essentials are listed with the On-Line Training course page.
