Training and briefings

One person presents and everyone else follows: onboarding a new team, explaining a new policy, a safety briefing, product training by an overseas trainer, a monthly all-hands. 10 to 100 people in a room.

Benefits

• The trainer speaks at a natural pace. The room reads the translation on a large screen.
• No pauses for interpretation, so a 1-hour session takes 1 hour.
• Participants who are less confident in the trainer's language understand the full content.
• The transcript serves as the handout. Send it after the session instead of writing up notes.

Mode and setup

Use One-Way. You do not set the speaker's language; Saydi detects it.

1. Set Translate to to the audience's language. Turn on Full screen on the projector or TV.
2. Give the trainer a microphone, preferably a lapel or headset microphone. If the room has a PA system, take the audio from the mixer; see Stage tech.
3. Enter the session's terminology in AI Context. If there are slides, the words on the slides are a good starting point.

Notes

• Text size 6 or above on the projector. Check from the back row before participants arrive.
• If the audience needs several languages, use Event Mode so each person chooses their own.
• For the Q&A, switch to Two-Way so questions from the audience are translated as well.

After the session

A full transcript in both languages, ready to share as a reference document.
