very hard to "take in" youtube vids for work

deadsponge

so, i start a voluntary job tomorrow, which om looking forward to and plan to do as many days as i can to just "escape" from this place im in and the people i have to share it with for most the days

however, i have to watch 3 mandatory training videos emailed to me, which are done via youtube

now they seem pretty common sense and "dont be an A-hole" stuff, but ive found it very hard to take any of it in aswell as trying to remember things i was told/explained at the interview/tour today

i remember bits and pieces of things, i think because i was reading the subtitles, but there was so much to take in, it kept going from one thing to another, and to quote "every time i learn something new, it pushes something old out of my brain" lol

also the subtitle misspelling said that bhf is "a vigilante organisation" and that just through my concentration right off lol.

so, hmm, is it worth trying to explain that to them tomorrow? im not quite sure how to explain it in honesty, "im not good at learning through videos" just doesn't sound right, if they were broken into smaller videos so i could ram things into my head that way it would be fine i think

thanks in advance for any replies

  • I hate video content too. It's the most inefficient way of delivering information.

    Are you being tested on the content? If not, it's likely that they don't expect you to remember it and just want to be able to say they've given you training. Most NTs will probably skim it and then immediately forget it.
