Virtual Producer Services for Seamless Event Delivery

Virtual Producer Program Overview

A skilled virtual producer is the key to every successful learning session, presentation, and meeting. The producer’s role is to support the presenter or facilitator, ensuring the virtual event runs smoothly and remains interactive to keep audiences engaged and presenters on track. Often underappreciated, the virtual producer launches media at the right time, manages quick task switching, and oversees the technical aspects of the session, such as launching polls and monitoring chats. This enables the presenter to fully focus on delivering engaging and interactive content. Acting as a safeguard, the virtual producer transforms potentially chaotic virtual sessions into seamless, well-organized experiences free from technical distractions.

This program is ideal for the presenter/facilitator who wishes to take on both roles or for the technical support personnel responsible for producing smooth and successful virtual communication and learning sessions in Adobe Connect, WebEx or Zoom.

NOTE: Participation in this program requires the use of VOIP communications. A computer headset is highly recommended for best audio quality. We also recommend a hardwired internet connection rather than wifi.

“For me, this training offered the type of confidence through practice I needed. The facilitator illustrated how we could use the producer skills to enhance and support the facilitator’s instruction to the point of being extremely vital to have an experienced producer. Geoff’s ease of facilitation and deft producer skills brought what could have been a very intimidating experience to one of exhilaration and excitement to visually see the tool (Adobe Connect) used in a live session as a facilitator with keen and insight support of a trained producer. I was looking forward to this workshop, and the accompanying class titled ‘Instructional Techniques for the Virtual Classroom’ was also taught by Friesen, Kaye, and Associates. These two workshops not only bolstered and bookended my incomplete skillset in virtual facilitation and producing – they presented the material in a pace and manner highly relatable and relevant to the times.”
