We have sessions geared toward brand new users, and also some deeper dives into advanced features as well. We even have slots open for a Knowmia Basics session tomorrow at 2PM EST. This would be perfect to share with anyone who needs some quick training ASAP.

What’s cooking with Knowmia
I recently had the opportunity to connect with TechSmith reps to share feedback and learn what’s coming up on their product roadmap. To summarize:
- You will be able to record “Picture-in-picture” webcam on your screencasts using the desktop recorder
- More accessibility features
- “Groups” are being improved and renamed to “Collections” – eventually this will help to be able to share media between instructors more easily
