Over the years many students have asked for a way to view my courses offline.
Initially I had offered my courses on DVD, but as time passed there seemed to be less and less DVD or Blu-ray players in use.
The recent trend in the industry is to allow secure mobile downloads, like how NetFlix and Amazon Prime let you download movies to watch while you're off the grid.
And while this is something I continue to pursue, I've yet to find a vendor who's perfected the process for independent instructors.
Until then, I'll continue to offer students mobile downloads of the Vimeo copies of my course videos for viewing with the free Vimeo app.
That said, I am happy to announce that starting next week I'll be adding a brand new offline option for all my students: Personalize High Speed Training Video USBs:
Each of these Training Video USB Drives will be personalized to the individual student, allowing them secure access to all the Course Lessons on any PC or MAC with a USB port.
These particular USB Flash Drives also support full HD playback over USB 3.0 without the need to install any software on the client computer.
And since I update my courses on a regular basis, I'm also offering all students who buy this offline option a FREE annual update service.
Interested students can send in their previously purchased Training Video USB Drive along with a self address stamped envelope, and I'll load the latest copy of the Training Videos on the USB Drive\at no charge!
I'm hoping that this new course add-on will really help all those students who work offshore or in far to reach places continue their education with the need of a legacy disc player.
If you're interested in this option, or have any questions on how it will work, I invite you to reach out to me here.
Until next time, Peace ✌️
