Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What duration are your video/DVDs?
A. Most are 10-15 minutes.
Q. Do you supply guides and activities?
A. Our dramatised and case study programs all have extensive guides with quizzes, session outlines and handouts, eg. Feedback Solutions, Communication Essentials, Hotlines, Creating a High Performance Workplace.
Q. What is the Ash.Quarry approach to video learning?
A. Eve and Peter like to cover specific behaviours and strategies to help people develop their skills to be more effective and productive in their work. In the Take Away Training series they do this without dramatised examples, so the programs can relate to most workplaces. In the dramatised programs the training points are delivered in a modular format with dramas and case examples used to show "real" situations and how to deal with them.
Q. In which country are the programs made?
A. The programs are filmed mainly in Australia and USA, and a limited number were shot in the UK and Asia.
Q. Are rentals available?
A. Some distributors of Ash.Quarry dramatised programs offer a rental service in their country. Take Away Training and Learning a la Carte are low priced and primarily sold outright on DVD, VCD or VHS formats.

A. PAL and NTSC, VHS, DVD and VCD, and intranet and broadcast licences are available on request, with .mpeg and other media files able to be supplied on payment of the appropriate licences.
