Internal Training Solutions for the Pharmaceutical Industry

Why is internal training a valuable tool for the pharma industry?

Internal training is a highly effective and convenient method to allow professionals to have appropriate learning within their workplace, saving time and increasing efficiency. Investing in internal training is invaluable, allowing a company or organization to maximize growth and have full control over the training content, style, and aims. Successful internal training targets exact topics and skills that individuals need to grow to professionally develop and prosper. Pharma sales training cements knowledge and skills in order to boost sales, increase efficiency, and benefit in expanding a business.

Successful internal communications are equally as important as external communications between pharmaceutical companies and their stakeholders. Good internal communication allows employees to be well-informed, creating a sense of transparency and openness, which results in shared company culture. This approach creates a network for feedback, debate, and discussion. Internal training is a key part of strong team communication, as shared practices, goals, and learnings encourage professional development and growth, building relationships as well as ability and knowledge.

The pharmaceutical industry holds a significant role in society and employs many people worldwide, as part of the research, operations, manufacturing, and office-based facilities. Keeping employees up to speed in this new digital era is a big challenge for the sector. Therefore, developing an efficient and successful digital internal training strategy is critical for the industry.

Medical animation for internal pharma training

Medical Animation is a useful tool for visually conveying information in an easy-to-follow format, using stunning scientific visuals. Our knowledge and experience within the field ensure that our medical animations are detailed and scientifically accurate. Animations are a great asset for learning, as they are easy to understand and engage the end-user. 3D animation holds the viewer’s attention and aids information retention, with 4 in 5 people declaring digital video helps them learn new things. Retention of training materials is a necessity for internal pharma training, as individuals need to confidently retain information in order to do their jobs to the best of their ability.

Creating a custom animation for internal training provides a flexible training tool that can be used in a variety of settings from the comfort of your employees’ homes or offices to formal presentations and seminars. Whether you have ten employees, or 100, a video training tool offers flexibility, allowing a shared learning experience through mutual content, rather than having to undergo the difficult task of getting teams of people in the same place, at the same time.

How can Random42 support pharmaceutical sales training?

Internal training is a popular method adopted by pharmaceutical, medical and biotechnology companies for sales training. Training pharmaceutical sales representatives for a product launch is an integral part of internal training for pharmaceutical companies. Educating and preparing sales reps is vital to ensure product knowledge is carefully communicated to HCPs. Pharma sales rep training includes the use of field content for example eDetailing, animations, app or web-based AR, VR, or microsites. At Random42, we possess the capabilities to equip sales reps with the knowledge to confidently relay pharmaceutical pipelines, products, and research to HCPs and medical experts. We can create pharmaceutical sales training online for sales reps to access at any time, from any location. This can include websites embedded with engaging digital content, animations, and interactive activities tailor-made to the company’s specific pipeline and products. As a company prepares for a product launch, our digital assets can be used to onboard sales reps and provide lasting training courses that reps can refer back to at any time.

Interactive experiences for internal pharma training

Innovative virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and interactive experiences are becoming an extremely popular option for internal training in the pharma and healthcare industries. Interactive technologies can facilitate knowledge retention in a convenient, stimulating format. Guided playback VR experiences are a great training tool. The viewer simply puts on a virtual reality headset, and the mentor can control the content using a tablet or mobile, allowing the content to be stopped at any time for questions or further explanation. This technology can also be utilized for team training situations, where the group can put on VR headsets and watch content simultaneously. VR is an extremely effective training instrument as it fully immerses the user within the content and allows chapters to be broken down into bite-sized learning modules.

At Random42, we can also create innovative scientific AR in the form of apps and experiences for internal training. Our augmented reality apps use cutting-edge technology, where your smart device can be used to activate a scientific experience, such as interactive animations, 3D models, quizzes, and games. Interactive training apps are an extremely valuable tool as they allow teams to access engaging content from a smartphone or tablet. This means employees can simply pull out their phones at set points during a training session to watch informative content and participate in assessment quizzes. Apps are also a convenient way of distributing information to staff and can allow employees to gain a better understanding of clinical trial data, research, drug MoAs, disease MoDs, and practical procedures. Producing mobile-friendly learning content is one great way of making learning accessible to all.

If you are looking to create innovative internal training tools, our expert team can offer the perfect tailor-made solutions for all your training needs. Whether you want to develop employee skills, train new staff or educate teams on new research, products, and procedures, Random42 can produce engaging, purposeful digital learning assets that can equip teams with the skills and knowledge to succeed in their roles.
