training film

Educational workplace footage

A training film is a video or movie designed to teach specific skills, procedures, or knowledge to employees, students, or other groups.

Unlike entertainment films, training films prioritize instruction over narrative: The company showed a training film on workplace safety.

The format ranges from simple demonstrations to dramatized scenarios illustrating correct and incorrect behavior.
