RSR Consultants Ltd

If you are looking to book on to an event (e.g. All about block contracts on Wed 21st Apr, All about block contracts (additional session) on Wed 21st Apr, Quarterly Catch Up: May 2021 (could easily be longer than an hour) on Wed 12th May) or view webinars in full then login using the login boxes at the top of the screen (or click here to request access) and go to Webinars on the menu bar once you have logged in.
Webinar Based Training Download how to watch a webinar guide RSR Consultants Ltd have delivered numerous web based training events with phenomenal feedback - our first five bitsize courses achieved 9.5/10! We have also overhauled our website so that, after logging in, the Webinars page puts you in control: 1 Book on to events with a single click of ATTEND (or complete billing information if paid for). This will result in you automatically being emailed the joining instructions, outlook calendar invite and, once available, the slides. 2 Once on the attendee list have the joining instructions re-sent to you at anytime (or cancel your place) 3 30 minutes prior to start of the event attend the webinar on our website (technically on www.rsrconsultants.co.uk) at just a click of a button. This has been designed so that low bandwidth users can attend as well as meaning it is more secure as no meeting ids or passwords need to be shared, ever. Our plan is eventually for all webinar training to be delivered via this approach as it is more secure. 4 At a click of a button we still enable the more traditional approach of attending via Zoom (either by logging in to Zoom or just attending in the browser) and enable the slides to be downloaded (they are in the joining instruction email as well). 5 After the event you can then click to leave feedback (for up to 30 days), watch the non-live recorded webinar, download the slides etc.

There are still some who query why we don't use Teams. For us Zoom is more secure as whilst both approaches only use local services, password protected, full end to end encryption (since mid Oct) the Zoom waiting room is actually more secure as we remain in full control of the waiting room whereas with Teams anyone who is in the meeting can admit anyone else from the waiting room. That all said, you no longer even need to use the Zoom software or go to the Zoom website as clicking the Joint Training Event keeps you in www.rsrconsultants.com (well technically .co.uk). Importantly though, the below shows how we feel the delegate experience is much better via Zoom:
ZOOM		TEAMS
We think it is important to ensure training delegates are engaged as much as possible to avoid 'switch off'. With Zoom we have developed an approach which we liken to weather presenters where we are in the slide and there are then significant visual cues for delegates and it keeps them engaged with the training.		The below shows the exact same training materials but delivered via Teams where delegates only see the shared slides and a disembodied voice talking through them. Our view is that delegates start to drift after around 30 mins as watching slides is quite often not sufficiently engaging.
Security Both Zoom and Teams require use of a password to access training so only those authorised to access the meeting can do so. Both Zoom and Teams require use of waiting room so only those authorised to access the meeting can do so (although only Zoom allows the host to remain in control of the waiting room). Both Zoom and Teams can run in the browser with no login or software installation. Both Zoom and Teams allow users to ask questions via chat or unmute themselves. Both Zoom and Teams use servers based in Europe. Both Zoom and Teams use full end to end encryption (Zoom rollout started Oct 2020) although not really a requirement for training events. We switch off recording in both Zoom and Teams so that delegates can speak freely. We switch off screen sharing in both Zoom and Teams so that no one can take over the training session.

Online Training
We have five online training courses that allow users to work through the materials at their own pace, with sample questions (where applicable) for them to check their understanding, definitions available by hovering over words in blue, links to guidance and even, for the Level 1 National Tariff course, an exam!
