Learn what you need to know in 3 minutes

Any company can maximise the opportunities of the internet and capitalise on the global market, all you really need is a well designed web site, with the right search optimisation, media built in such as video plus links to social networking. With even the minimum of outlay, even the smallest company can be launched into an international buying arena and try to capitalise on the 24/7 access to your products or services.

An example of a new company trying to do just that, are Three Minute Trainer based in Newcastle. With their innovative training to bring learning into your pocket with mobile, tablet and PC enabled courses, their idea was simple – people in business have little time to stop, so let’s develop training that can fit into the gaps rather than having to take a ‘time out’ approach.

Gavin Knights owner and founder said ‘We saw a gap to meet the current market digital demands, to make flexible, exceptional high value, low cost training in three minute bites so that training works around the individual. Without jargon, we can get directly to the point which means that we can say in three minutes what might take a day to learn by conventional methods, ideal for any SME.’

Adding to this Neil Wood Mitchell also owner and founder explained ‘Our product takes us to a new digital level of learning, with exceptional content, graphics, videos and worksheets. The community forum aims at collaborative learning and all learners also have access to the trainer. In effect, from anywhere at any time, people can learn at their convenience, and although we are a small company ourselves, we feel that this online structure and learner engagement can give us access to a high volume market.’

Working with industry experts to develop the content, the courses are designed to meet the needs of start up companies and growing businesses. They are focused entirely on skills and techniques that keep you in business, while the condensing of information means that you can learn a lot in a little time.

‘Put simply’ said Gavin ‘we are looking to deliver an alternative training model with our interactive online delivery which is packed with skills actually practiced in the field. Our Selling Skills course is designed for companies looking to win more work and our Health and Safety to allow companies contribute to compliance. Making Your Business Work is designed to help anyone needing to manage time, money and resources to be more profitable. Our target is to make courses that meet real business needs wherever the company is located and whatever their size.’
