Why Choose IM University?
We are the leading display industry market research firm with a special focus on 3D. Our in-depth research, and accumulated knowledge of the entire 3D ecosystem, has prepared us to provide 3D training/ education across the entire 3D spectrum. Our analysts/ presenters have decades of technical industry experience and are excellent communicators so attendees leave with a solid understanding of the course material.

“Our goal is to educate many people about 3D technology, markets and issues. This will help advance the industry and facilitate the creation of fantastic 3D experiences,” noted Insight Media president, Chris Chinnock. “Our courses include 3D demonstrations to illustrate concepts and we encourage an open discussion environment to facilitate learning.”

Insight Media has already provided a number of workshops on 3D starting last April at the EHX Expo, followed by 3DComm in June and a workshop in Taiwan in August. In between, we have provided additional workshops for retail dealers, Pro AV dealers and private companies. Confirmed upcoming workshops include 3D for Independent Cinema, Digital Signage Expo and the 3D Film Festival in Hollywood. More will be announced soon.

"Digital Signage Expo, the world's leading trade show and conference serving the digital signage and interactive technology industry, is excited to be working with Insight Media to provide valuable education, training and information about 3D technology to our 2011 attendees,” said Angelo Varrone, CEO of Exponation, DSE’s conference organizer.

At a recent 3D workshop in Taiwan, where many 3D technology experts were in attendance, attendee Golden Tiao said, “It was really good as it helped me to stitch together many of the pieces of information I had to get a more complete picture of the entire 3D ecosystem."

Who Benefits from 3D Training?
We offer 3D training for almost anyone in the 3D ecosystem -- sales & marketing executives, dealers, retailers, system integrators, hardware/software developers, display makers, broadcasters, and content creators. We cover the entire 3D ecosystem!

What Areas Does IM University Training Cover?
Our 3D training covers the entire 3D ecosystem – from 3D content creation to 3D displays! For a complete list of available seminar topics, please go to: http://www.insightmedia.info/training/toc.php. We can, of course, customize seminars to your specific audience’s needs.

Content is offered in three categories:

Workshops modules – a series of 90-minute modules focused on various aspects of the 3D ecosystem from content creation to display. These are intermediate level courses, many of which will feature 3D demonstrations during the course of the class. Seating is limited to 50 to ensure a good learning environment. Modules can be assembled to create full day courses.

Seminar modules – 90 to 120-minute modules at a basic level covering multiple 3D topics. Seating is not limited, but 3D demonstrations are not included. These can be repeated as necessary with some variation in the topics covered and emphasis on each topic.

Webinars – web-based training or promotional events. Webinars can be used to describe the expanded content available in upcoming seminars and workshops or they can be used as the delivery system for the training.

What’s the Value of Educating Your Staff, Colleagues or Your Customers?
You are going to have to be knowledgeable about 3D as your customers, end-users, dealers or partners will be asking about it. The smarter you are about what is going on in the 3D ecosystem, the more value you add to the dialog, discussion or sales encounter. Getting your whole team on the same page in terms of a basic education about 3D technology, markets, issues and the ecosystem can be very helpful in efficiently taking advantage of the 3D opportunity.

We realize you have many choices in your education and training options, including low cost or even free training from manufacturers of products or equipment. That can be valuable, but having a well-informed company like Insight Media, with no ax to grind as your education source, has tremendous value too.

Can Our Company or Organization Host a Workshop?
Yes! We have multiple business models available for our workshops. Perhaps your company would like to sponsor a workshop or seminar for employees, dealers, retailers, content creators, or customers at your location? Or, perhaps you’d like to sponsor at one of our conference-style events? Attendees can attend your hosted workshop free, or we can charge your attendees a fee to attend.

Our workshops are valuable additions to technical conferences and other hosted events. If you’re planning an event and you think 3D training would increase the attendance at your existing event and/or offer your attendees more educational choices, please contact us!
