One of our most popular webinars from 2022 is returning with an update on how training professionals are incorporating AI voice into their workflows.

In January this year, AI and Generative AI have begun to dominate industry newsletters, and learning and development are no exception.

The problem most instructional designers face in 2023 is understanding what AI tools are easy to learn, are capable of working well with teams, and have a high return on investment.

AI Voice is one of those tools, and in this webinar you’ll learn why companies like Boeing, Snowflake, Five9, Intel, and Peloton spend less time and money sourcing professional voice overs, without sacrificing quality

What You’ll Learn: 

• When to use a voice actor vs. a synthetic voice
• What to consider when selecting the ideal voice(s)
• How to tailor your script for voiceover
• Voiceover production best practices
• Do’s and Don’ts for voiceover success
