Recording the virtual training sessions and distributing the training materials will ensure that partners who were unable to attend the live sessions can still access the valuable information. Additionally, making these resources available will provide all partners with a reference point they can return to, ensuring clarity and understanding of the accreditation process long after the training is completed.
Steps to Record and Distribute Training Materials
1. Recording the Virtual Training Sessions
1.1. Choose the Right Recording Settings
Before starting the training session, ensure the platform you’re using allows for full-session recording. Platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet all support session recordings.
Key things to ensure:
- Record Audio and Video: Capture both the presentation (slides, video) and the audio of the speaker(s). This ensures that participants who view the recording will receive the full experience.
- Enable Screen Recording: If you’re using slides or demonstrating a process on your computer, make sure to enable screen recording so viewers can clearly follow the content.
- Chat and Q&A Recording: If the platform supports it, record the chat and any questions asked during the session. This can be helpful for context, especially if questions were answered throughout the presentation.
1.2. Record the Full Session
- Start Recording Early: Begin recording a few minutes before the training session officially starts to include any introductions, technical checks, or announcements.
- Stop Recording After the Session Ends: Make sure to stop the recording after the Q&A portion or any closing remarks to avoid recording unnecessary content.
1.3. Save the Recording in Multiple Formats
- High-Quality Audio & Video File: Save the session as a video file in a common format (e.g., MP4, AVI, or MOV).
- Separate Audio File: If possible, also save the session’s audio as a standalone file (e.g., MP3), in case some partners prefer to listen to the session instead of watching the video.
2. Distribute the Training Materials
2.1. Compile the Training Materials
Along with the recording, prepare a packet of training materials to be distributed to participants. These materials can include:
- Presentation Slides: Provide a downloadable copy of the slide deck used in the training session, so partners can follow along at their own pace.
- Accreditation Guidelines: Include the updated accreditation guidelines that were discussed during the session.
- Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Share a document with commonly asked questions and their answers to clarify any doubts.
- Supporting Documents: Provide links or downloadable resources (e.g., templates for application, document submission guidelines, etc.).
- Key Dates and Timelines: Include important deadlines for accreditation submission and renewal, so partners are informed of any time-sensitive actions.
2.2. Upload Training Materials to an Accessible Platform
- Dedicated Webpage or Partner Portal: Host the session recording and materials on a dedicated section of SayPro’s website or a partner portal. This ensures that all materials are easily accessible and organized for partners.
- Cloud Storage: Use cloud services like Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to upload the materials. Ensure the files are organized into folders and accessible via shareable links.
- Example: Create folders titled “Accreditation Training – April 2025” and place all resources inside. Include subfolders for “Session Recordings,” “Training Slides,” “FAQs,” etc.
- Access Control: Set permissions so only registered partners or those with the appropriate credentials can access the materials.
2.3. Send Email to Participants
- Email Subject: “Access the Recording & Materials from SayPro’s Accreditation Training Sessions”
- Content: In the email, include a thank-you note for attending the training and a brief summary of what was covered. Provide the following:
- A link to the recorded sessions (either on the partner portal or a cloud storage platform).
- Attach or link to the training slides, FAQ documents, and other helpful materials.
- Include contact information for further support or questions.
Example Email:

2.4. Share Links for Easy Access
- Include links to both the recording and downloadable materials in the email. Make sure these links are easy to access and click through.
- If the training is uploaded to a partner portal or website, consider providing direct access to the page where partners can easily navigate and find the session materials.
3. Provide Ongoing Support After Training
3.1. Dedicated Support Channels
- Live Support: Offer live support channels (e.g., chatbots, email support, or live office hours) where partners can ask additional questions after watching the session recording.
- FAQ Updates: Update the FAQ section based on questions or feedback received during the live session or after the recording is accessed.
3.2. Follow-up Communication
