New ChyronHego Academy to provide convenient online training

ChyronHego has announced the launch of ChyronHego Academy, a training resource designed to help industry professionals acquire and update essential skills in working with the company’s graphics products.

Offering a self-paced online curriculum created by product experts, ChyronHego Academy provides a pathway to becoming a certified ChyronHego product designer or operator. The initial ChyronHego Academy courses focus on PRIME Graphics and will be followed by courses on additional products from the ChyronHego portfolio.

“Over the years, ChyronHego has been a trusted partner of Lyric freelancers, as well as the many designers and operators working with ChyronHego’s Lyric and PRIME Graphics solutions at broadcast and production facilities worldwide,” said Carol Bettencourt, manager of strategic marketing projects at ChyronHego.

“With ChyronHego Academy we’re extending support for these users, giving them the tools to increase their knowledge and expand their career opportunities from the comfort of their home. To support the broadcast community as a whole during the COVID-19 crisis, we’re making ChyronHego Academy courses and certification available at no cost.”

ChyronHego Academy makes skills training accessible and convenient to all types of participants, from freelance designers and operators looking to boost their own knowledge base to teams working within larger media organizations. Learning from the best — and on the latest technology — participants can complete basic, intermediate, and advanced course modules to earn certification.

Freelance designers and operators can leverage ChyronHego Academy certification to demonstrate their skill and expertise to potential employers. Managers within a broadcast organisation can take advantage of certification training to raise the overall proficiency of staff designers and operators, as well as to evaluate new ChyronHego products.
