At Qualcomm, invention is at the heart of corporate culture — a value the company relies on in order to maintain its place atop the mobile technology industry.
Facilitating that culture is another closely-held principle: strong support for employee learning and development.
For Qualcomm employees, partners, and contractors, the company’s commitment to continuous learning is readily apparent in the volume of training options the company offers. Qualcomm’s learning and development teams facilitate more than 600 instructor-led training events annually, as well as a nearly endless stream of informal knowledge sharing sessions, guru talks, and brown bag discussions
Searching for Lower-Cost, More Scalable Training
Supporting its litany of live in-classroom sessions, Qualcomm uses video to expand the availability of many of its training courses, making most courses viewable on-demand for engineers, analysts, executives, and other members of the organization.
At first, Qualcomm relied on a vendor to produce its training videos, but it quickly became apparent that model wasn’t scalable. Recordings took weeks to produce, and each new session added yet another invoice against the budget. In addition, Qualcomm couldn’t offer technical enhancements to the videos like more reliable streaming, peer-to-peer sharing, or inside-video search to make the final products more user-friendly.
Collectively, Qualcomm’s learning and development teams went looking for a more efficient tool to deliver video for eLearning. That’s when they discovered Panopto.
“When I first found Panopto, I thought ‘Wow, we could create all this video ourselves, and it would be easy,” said Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management at Qualcomm. “This could open up our world.’”

The Practical Guide to Flipping Your Classroom - An eBook by the Panopto Vide...Panopto
In the last decade, academic institutions at all levels have begun introducing non-traditional pedagogies that combine traditional brick-and-mortar teaching with online, on-demand learning.
Among all of the approaches to this “blended learning,” one has garnered more media attention, reported more tangible results, and gained the support of more educators than any other — the flipped classroom.
In just the last four years, flipping the classroom has evolved from an obscure experiment to a mainstream model for improving the student learning experience in universities and school districts around the world.
But just what is a flipped classroom?
How do teachers prepare to flip a class?
How do they create flipped lecture materials and structure in-class time?
And how do they know if all their efforts were worth it?
Just in time for the new school year, we’ve developed the definitive guidebook for any teacher, professor, or administrator interested in flipping their classrooms.
The Practical Guide to Flipping Your Classroom covers everything from what questions educators can expect when flipping a class, to how to plan for interactive learning sessions and even what to look for in video equipment.
White Paper - Modern Video Streaming in the Enterprise - Panopto Video PlatformPanopto
In the past several decades, changes in video technology have frequently occurred through seismic shifts in ecosystem support. The triumph of VHS over Betamax, the subsequent shift from VHS to DVD, and the rise of H.264 have all followed a pattern in which the industry rallies around a technology and solidifies its position in the market.
In 2015, the next sea change is underway. Legacy video streaming protocols built on overlay networks, custom protocols, and specialized servers are giving way to chunked, connectionless, HTTP-based “Modern Streaming.”
Organizations that implement their live and on-demand video infrastructure using Modern Streaming stand to benefit from reductions in cost and network management complexity, and from improvements in scalability and the viewing experience. Because modern video protocols have been built to leverage the architecture of the internet and corporate WANs, they work in concert with organizations’ existing web caching infrastructure and WAN optimization technologies.
For organizations with video infrastructure built on legacy streaming protocols like RTMP, MMS, and RTSP, and organizations that have invested in multicast video communication, Modern Streaming represents an inflection point. Although continued investment in legacy video technology limits near-term disruption, it prolongs an inevitable technology transition, increases the eventual cost of switching, and limits the choice of technology providers who are actively divesting from the technologies.
Learn more! In our latest white paper, Modern Video Streaming in the Enterprise: Protocols, Caching, and WAN Optimization, we’ll take a deeper look into the technical shifts driving the move toward Modern Streaming, including the seven characteristics that make a video streaming protocol modern.
We’ll also look that the new opportunities Modern Streaming presents for organizations to use existing network infrastructure for more scalable, cost-effective video delivery.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Case Study: Qualcomm Amplifies Global Employee and Partner Training with the Panopto Video Platform
1. 1 of 7
“Quality Communications.” That’s the goal upon which
Qualcomm Incorporated has created the very foundation
of the mobile industry.Thirty years later, it’s Qualcomm
technology that lies at the heart of almost every component
of today’s wireless world.
Of course, the simplicity of that founding mantra is in stark
contrast to the complexity of the company’s business.Today,
Qualcomm relies on the technical insights, intelligence, and
innovations of more than 27,000 employees around the
world to ensure its technology allows mobile phone signals
to stay strong, systems to operate swiftly, and a vast range of
sophisticated software and services to successfully deliver
information, monitor processes and activities, and enable
communications.
Innovation is at the heart of Qualcomm’s corporate culture,
and a value the company relies on in order to maintain its
place at the head of its market.
Supporting that culture at Qualcomm is another closely-held
principle: fostering employee learning and development.
Qualcomm amplifies global
employee & partner training
with on-demand video
Qualcomm Incorporated is
one of the world’s leading
semiconductor companies.
Its technologies and services
make up much of the
foundation of the modern
wireless telecommunications
industry.It’s estimated that
around the world,people touch
something made possible by
Qualcomm technology billions
of times daily.
Today Qualcomm prides itself
on a company culture that
prizes innovation and expertise.
Its mission is to ask the little
questions that lead to big ideas.

Searching for Lower-Cost, More ScalableTraining
For Qualcomm employees, partners, and contractors, the company’s commitment to
continuous learning is always readily apparent in the sheer volume of training options the
company offers.
Qualcomm’s Corporate Learning Center alone facilitates more than 300 instructor-led
training events annually, along with a nearly endless stream of informal knowledge sharing
sessions, guru talks, and brown bag discussions.And that’s just the core learning and
development team — the Qualcomm Wireless Academy delivers another 300 classes each
year specifically for the company’s Engineering Services group.
Along with a litany of live in-classroom sessions, Qualcomm uses video to extend the
availability of many of its training courses, making them available on-demand to its
engineers, analysts, executives, and other members of the organization.
The benefits of on-demand video, however, were soon outweighed by the time and costs
required to create it.
When Qualcomm first
began creating video
recordings of its training
sessions, the company
relied on an outside vendor
to record and produce each
video. Sessions were typically
ready to share a week or two
after the original presentation,
and each added a new invoice against the team budget.
For any individual session, those weren’t pressing issues — but as the company sought to
record more and more training events, and more and more partners, executives, and others
requested technical improvements like faster streaming, mobile-readiness, simplified sharing,
and more comprehensive video content search, it quickly became clear that the way the
company’s learning and development teams were using video simply couldn’t scale. And
that problem, in turn, meant it would be very difficult for the rest of the teams’ initiatives to
scale as well.
Collectively, the teams set about looking for a more efficient tool to deliver video for
e-Learning, and that’s when Qualcomm discovered Panopto.
For a technical subject, search is critical.
Panopto helped us ensure our recordings
would be resources our people could go
back to, find the information they need, and
get back to the solving the task at hand.
— Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management, Qualcomm Inc.
3. 855-PANOPTO www.panopto.com sales@panopto.com
3 of 7
As Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management, recalls,“When I first found Panopto,
I thought ‘Wow, we could create all this video ourselves, and it would be easy. This could
open up our world.’”
Training Video Production in a Matter of Minutes
In her role at Qualcomm, Sanderlin leads delivery operations and products for the
Qualcomm Wireless Academy, which supports corporate engineering services.
Engineers at Qualcomm are expected to be experts on the 3G and 4G wireless standards,
international standards created by groups of telecom organizations.With that expertise,
Qualcomm engineers are charged with supporting wireless operators around the world
and ensuring that their networks are optimized to perform at their best.This is particularly
important during the massive spikes in network activity generated by mega-events like the
Olympics, the World Cup,
or the Super Bowl which are
now routinely streamed online
to mobile phones and tablets
around the world.
Those wireless standards,
however, are exceptionally
detailed technical documents.
It’s not the type of information
that can be skimmed and
quickly understood.To manage that complexity and translate these complicated
documents into understandable information the Qualcomm Wireless Academy was
designed to offer a comprehensive training regimen.
Every year, the Qualcomm Wireless Academy trains more than 8,000 students on 30 subjects
related to the 3G and 4G wireless standards.The courses are long — many running three
full days or more — and revolve around a set of dense technical handbooks more akin to a
college textbook than a quick reference guide.
It’s a lot to take in all at once, which is exactly why Qualcomm also records its Wireless
Academy sessions.The company has found that video enables learners to go back and
revisit topics on-demand, making it easy to review anything from a specific detail to an entire
subject, at exactly moment it’s most relevant.
For the highly technical training
we’re providing in the Wireless Academy,
our engineers want all the details —
as much as we can give them.
We’ve found video works for that.
— Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management, Qualcomm Inc.
4. 855-PANOPTO www.panopto.com sales@panopto.com
4 of 7
“Usually in e-learning, you might dumb things down a bit. But that’s not true at all for highly
technical training,” said Sanderlin.“For the highly technical training we’re providing in the
Wireless Academy, our engineers want all the details — as much as we can give them.We’ve
found video works for that, and it’s worked for us for many, many years.”
Indeed, the Qualcomm Wireless Academy had a long history of using video to supplement
their training courses. But increasingly, the team had found that the cost to generate a
complete training video with a third party AV team — recording the class, producing the
video, including slides and notes, and indexing the spoken and on-screen content to be
searchable — was just too costly.
To allow the team to continue to grow and offer new and updated training, Sanderlin knew
she needed a tool that could help the team’s efforts scale. Her team was among the first at
Qualcomm to test Panopto.
“Panopto gives us a cost-effective tool to expand the way we do e-learning,” says
Sanderlin.“With Panopto, we can record the one, two, and three day classes, put them in a
playlist section by section, and present both the video of the trainer and the slides side by
side.We can update existing recordings whenever we need, and continually enhance our
training library.”
Also important is Panopto’s
ability to index and search
every word spoken or shown
on-screen in the training videos.
“For a technical subject, the ability to search the actual spoken and on-screen content
becomes critical,” notes Sanderlin.“When you’re in a training session that might last a day or
even a week, the point isn’t really to remember — it’s to see how things work and learn where
things are, and achieve an understanding along the way. Panopto helped us ensure our
recordings would be resources our people could go back to, find the information they need,
and get back to the solving the task at hand.”
Panopto makes it easy to record, manage, share, and search video.Training teams can
use Panopto to record video of virtually any kind of training activity — anywhere, anytime,
with any video recording device — from HD camcorders to simple webcams, and even
smartphones and tablets.Along with each new video recorded, organizations can quickly
upload their existing libraries of training videos to their secure, centralized Panopto video
library, where they are automatically transcoded for optimal playback on any device,
completely indexed for search, and made shareable so that others with approval can watch
them on-demand.
Panopto gives us a cost-effective tool
to expand the way we do e-learning.
— Dana Sanderlin, Director of Product Management, Qualcomm Inc.
5. 855-PANOPTO www.panopto.com sales@panopto.com
5 of 7
With Panopto, the technical aspects of video production and management are taken care
of instantly without the additional time and cost of working with third party AV specialists.
Training teams just click “record” and present — Panopto takes care of the rest.
“Today our team has come to expect video as part of our training programs,” reports
Sanderlin.“Alongside instructor-led classrooms and our coursebooks and self-study guides,
video makes it possible to watch and rewatch the class on-demand, learn who the subject
matter experts are, and collaborate more internally.”
Designing aN On-DemandTraining Library at Scale
At Qualcomm, supporting the company’s culture of innovation means encouraging
employees to learn something new every day through a combination of formal and
informal training.This is the charter of the company’s Corporate Learning Center.The
group is responsible for curating a vast array of knowledge — from highly technical
engineering lectures to sessions on business management, project management, program
management, leadership, finance, and more.
Ken Davis is a Senior Learning Technology Specialist in the Corporate Learning Center. It’s his
job to help the organization use technology to continually expand the scope of its training
activities, and to help deliver all that information to the company’s global and mobile
audiences.
“We wanted to make more use of more content,” recalls Davis.“We had about 300
instructor-led events per year, but there were other opportunities that weren’t getting
recorded — things like guru talks, knowledge sharing sessions, and brown bag discussions.
We knew there was a wealth of great information being presented in those environments,
and we wanted to capture it to make it available anytime, anywhere, for everyone at
Qualcomm.”
For Davis, that started with getting the right supporting tools in place.And foremost on his list
was a better way to manage the organization’s video content.
“We wanted to be able to share simultaneous video of the instructor with the slide deck,”
Davis says.“That’s what we’d been doing with our video specialist team. Sessions were
recorded to an internal file share, then the video was pulled out of that and given over to
the specialists.They’d turn it around in a different program, produce the video, add slides,
and append an index. The video was a great resource, but the whole process took 10-12
weeks — now we get all that from Panopto in a one-touch recording.”

With Panopto, it’s easy for the Qualcomm team to record just about anything.“Now we just
have the presenter come in with their presentation on their computer, sharing whatever
they like on their screen.And we have a separate computer that records audio and video
separately.And we record both of those into a single session, and then from that, we get a
really nice presentation we can index and make available.”
From there, according to Davis,“It quickly expanded into all kinds of different concepts —
providing video for our website, on mobile applications, everywhere.With Panopto we could
have our video content in the cloud, meaning we could get it out there quickly, share it, and
support it.”
And that flexibility is opening up new options for the Qualcomm Wireless Academy, too.
“Right now we ask our subject matter experts to record short podcasts where they share their
institutional knowledge,” says Sanderlin.“It’s already very popular.And now we’re working to
make the switch to recording video podcasts — making those bite-sized technical concepts
even easier to understand because we’ll be able to include a video for people to follow
along.”
ScalingTraining For A Global Organization
As Qualcomm’s learning and development teams look to the future, a key consideration is in
how best to scale their learning and development resources to a worldwide workforce.
“We’re growing globally,” says Davis.“We’ve doubled in size in the last 10 years, and today we
actually have more people in our international offices than we have just in the US. So how
do we continue to support that? If we had a major software change, how can we get that
message out if we’re only doing instructor-led training? We’d have to pay to get a dozen
people to go out and lead the classes, and that’s an expensive proposition.We see it being
a wiser option to hold that session once in the room, and use Panopto both to broadcast
that class out live to 100 people in remote offices, as well as record it make it available on
demand.”
Already Panopto is helping the team reach offices around the world more efficiently.“In the
past, when we recorded the video into our own internal video library, our people in India had
When I first found Panopto, I thought ‘Wow, we could
create all this video ourselves, and it would be easy.
This could open up our world.’

to go through all of the different network hops to try to get to that server from halfway around
the world,” reports Davis.“It was buffering. It was slow. It wasn’t an ideal experience. Now with
our installation of Panopto on the cloud, we’ve had people come back from India and say,
‘I don’t have to wait for 20 minutes for the video to start. It starts right away.’”
Along with improving accessibility, Qualcomm is looking to video to maintain the visual
nature and interactivity of the classroom environment.“We’re looking from the perspective
of the engineers who want to see and interact with the person that’s teaching the program,”
says Davis.“That’s especially important in our remote offices — they want to know that
someone here in the home office is there to walk them through the information. On-demand
video has been a key part of that, especially in Europe and Asia, where e-Learning is already
culturally a part of how people expect to be taught.”
LookingToThe Future —
FosteringTraining With Collaboration
As Qualcomm’s learning and development teams continue to expand support for formal
and informal training activities all around the world, they’ve also set their sights on another
key trend in employee training — education through social learning and collaboration.
Today, virtually every organization relies on social learning as a key part of their learning
infrastructure, but for the vast majority, all those tips and best practices that employees share
with one another go unrecorded.The knowledge of key experts walks out the door with them
each night — meaning it’s often unavailable to anyone who may need it.
“Today our employee relations and communication groups are leveraging more and more
Panopto presentations to enable that kind of social knowledge sharing to happen,” says
Davis.“And the reason for that is because of the unique capture capability that Panopto has
to capture what’s on your screen, along with additional video from additional cameras, and
bring it all together and make it easy to search and share.”
“In the future, I’d like to get to a point where everyone at Qualcomm can use Panopto
for collaboration,” says Sanderlin.“Collaboration between everyone on our team is so
important for us to remaining a technology leader. Our engineers learn so much from each
other — already it’s a very powerful force for innovation.Tapping into that and scaling it with
Panopto could help us foster an even more collaborative environment, where everyone at
Qualcomm can really exchange ideas and insights, learn from one another’s expertise, and
share the intelligence we have that will help us keep on innovating.”
