Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP Enhances Productivity with Interactive Content Platform
Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease LLP, an international law firm based in Columbus, Ohio, has streamlined its content creation process by adopting a user-friendly and affordable platform. The firm, which boasts approximately 375 attorneys across ten offices worldwide, has seen an increase in productivity, freeing up time for higher-priority tasks.
The platform, whose favorite features include the multiple ways to publish and the inclusive stock photos it provides, has been instrumental in creating engaging step-by-step guides and training simulations. It has also minimized client and team FAQs with detailed training materials.
The ease of use and onboarding process made it simple for new team members to integrate and create materials without formal training. The Vorys team can assign user permissions for editing, viewing, or commenting, giving them control over access. Projects can be made password-protected to keep sensitive information private or on a need-to-know basis.
The team at Vorys has collaborated continuously using the platform's team collaboration and workspace features, including direct commenting, simultaneous project work, and real-time updates. They have created 358 projects within the platform, finding the templates to be a significant time-saver.
In addition to creating interactive content such as simulations, quizzes, and step-by-step guides to reinforce new knowledge, the team at Vorys also creates visually appealing and engaging materials for events like ILTACON. In 2020, they used the platform to create a quick training simulation to show technology consumers how to dial a phone number using the Microsoft Teams keypad.
The Vorys team, led by Information Technology Education Manager Vanessa Ware, who has been with the company for 24 years, discovered the platform during their research into web-based software to invest in for creating interactive educational materials and marketing collateral during the pandemic.
While the firm has developed and uses a custom educational platform called Vorys at Work for creating and delivering interactive educational materials such as updates, training, alerts, blogs, podcasts, and webinars targeted at HR professionals and in-house counsel on labor and employment law trends, there is no specific information available about their experience with any external or third-party content creation platform for marketing collateral or interactive materials beyond this proprietary platform.
The platform offers a wide range of plans to suit users' needs, with no hidden fees and free cancellation. The Vorys team uses the Prosci ADKAR Model to encourage content adoption, which includes steps aimed at informing, educating, and engaging the audience in a more structured way.
In 2020, the Vorys team also created a comparison chart with hotspots to educate technology consumers on how to perform similar tasks in both the old and new cloud-based document management software. They also create interactive infographics to communicate concepts or soft skills, as visuals are the most effective way to convey their points.
