Video Shorts: Skills That Fit Your Schedule 

Access Learning Content (formerly Access Bookboon) delivers short videos designed for how busy professionals work. Expert-led video clips from 90 seconds fit seamlessly into the workday, transforming spare minutes between client calls into genuine capability building. Your teams get immediate, actionable insights from industry practitioners - delivered in moments they have available, maintaining operational efficiency. 

Access Learning solutions are accredited, assured and backed by our learning partners.

What happens when there's no time for training? 

The leadership conversation you need to have today. The negotiation technique that would help in this afternoon's client meeting. The productivity hack that could save your team hours this week. All of these require skill-building, but finding 30 or 60 minutes in a working day proves impossible. 

Shorts solve this by delivering complete concepts in brief, focused clips. One targeted insight, learned in the moment you need it, applied straight away in your work. This is professional development designed for when training time doesn't exist - but learning opportunities do. 

Introduce short bursts of video learning 

Access Learning Content delivers on-demand learning in the visual content format your workforce is already familiar with - think short news clips or social media videos. Our shorts align with how people naturally consume information: brief, focused, and immediately useful. This ‘nano learning’ format makes learning feel less like corporate training and more like genuine skill-building. 

Expert-led content from subject matter experts focuses on same-day application—skills you can use straight away, slotting into your schedule for easy learning on the go; during commutes, between tasks, or in those brief windows throughout the workday. 

As part of Access Learning Content, video shorts join our broader library of eBooks, audio learning content, and live virtual classrooms, offering organisations multiple formats to engage their workforce in professional development. 

"Professional development has traditionally operated on a scarcity model - find the time, block the calendar, commit the hours. Video shorts operate on an abundance model: learning opportunities exist throughout the workday if we design content that fits those moments. It's not about finding more time; it's about recognising the time that already exists." 

Laura Haselum, Learning Content Manager Access Learning Content

Why should you implement video shorts? 

Video shorts transform professional development by integrating seamlessly into your workforce's actual day. Those spare minutes employees might spend scrolling the news becomes skill-building time. Commutes become classrooms. Time waiting for calls to start becomes capability development - all whilst maintaining productivity. When employees want deeper learning, they can consume multiple videos on a specific topic in one focused session. 

Beyond traditional work skills, video shorts cover what your workforce wants to learn: AI fundamentals, wellbeing and stress management, financial literacy, leadership essentials, and quick practical tips they can use today. This results in immediate skill application that employees genuinely value, and confident professionals who engage with learning because it delivers practical benefits they can use, both at work and in life.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions about Shorts

What are video shorts?

Video shorts deliver complete, actionable concepts in bite-sized clips ranging from 90 seconds to a few minutes. Each video is purpose-built to teach a specific skill you can apply straight away - slotting into your schedule, not disrupting it. Access Learning Content's video library covers leadership development, communication skills, productivity techniques, and business-critical capabilities, all delivered by verified industry practitioners who understand real workplace challenges. 

How do employees find time for video learning?

That's the point - they already have the time. During breaks, throughout the commute, whilst waiting for meetings to start, or during lunch. Mobile-optimised content means skill-building happens in moments that already exist in the workday. This is on-demand learning that works around operational priorities rather than competing with them. 

Will this work for our older employees who aren't used to short videos?

When organisations provide the right content and clearly communicate its benefits, professionals of all ages find value in brief, focused videos that deliver practical skills. The key is direct applicability - everyone appreciates skill-building that respects their time whilst delivering genuine capability development. This isn't about social media trends; it's about providing flexible learning options that work alongside traditional training methods to support continuous professional growth. 

How long does it take to complete a short video?

Shorts range from 90 seconds to a few minutes, with each one delivering a complete, actionable concept. Unlike traditional courses that require blocking out more time, you can complete a short video in the time it takes to make a coffee or wait for your next meeting to start. This means you can slot multiple learning moments into your day whilst maintaining workflow. 

Can employees watch multiple Shorts in one session?

Absolutely. When employees have dedicated time for deeper learning, they can watch several Shorts on a specific topic to build comprehensive understanding. The My Library feature makes it easy to create playlists or follow curated learning paths, whilst still maintaining the flexibility to stop after one video if that's all the time available. This gives you the best of both worlds - micro-moments of learning or focused skill-building sessions. 

How are Shorts different from chopped-up course segments?

Each short video is purpose-built as a standalone learning moment with a complete beginning, middle, and end. They're not excerpts from longer courses - they're intentionally designed to deliver one actionable concept you can use straight away. This means you don't need context from previous videos to understand and apply what you've learned, making them truly on-demand and just-in-time. 

What is the 70-20-10 rule for training and development?

The 70-20-10 model suggests people learn through 70% on-the-job experience, 20% social learning from others, and 10% formal training. Our videos bridge all three: bite-sized videos integrate into your workflow (70%), peer communities enable social learning (20%), and expert-led content provides structured knowledge (10%). 

How do short videos work with other Access Learning Content formats?

Shorts complement the full Access Learning Content library alongside eBooks, audio learning, and virtual classrooms. Different formats serve different learning moments: Shorts for just-in-time skill-building between meetings, eBooks for deeper exploration at your desk, audio for hands-free development during commutes, and virtual classrooms for collaborative experiences. This multi-format approach means employees choose the right format for each moment in their day, creating flexible professional development that adapts to how your workforce operates. 

How quickly can we deploy video shorts across our organisation?

Access Learning Content integrates seamlessly with your existing systems, requiring zero IT complexity or months-long implementations. Self-service setup means your workforce starts accessing video shorts within 48 hours of contract signature. Native integration with Access systems eliminates separate login friction whilst transparent per-employee pricing scales effortlessly as your organisation grows - without additional complexity.
