Scaling Global Crew Training With AI Video
Branded handbooks, training materials, and AI-generated video, built in Synthesia and HeyGen, that train Viking Cruises crews across river, ocean, and expedition fleets worldwide.

Business Need
Viking Cruises operates river, ocean, and expedition routes across Europe, the Americas, and other regions, with a large, multi-role crew that needs to be trained to one consistent standard regardless of location. Every learning and communication asset has to follow Viking's brand guidelines exactly while staying engaging and easy to use in a busy international environment. The materials are frequently needed on tight timelines, so production has to be fast without losing quality or consistency. Viking's internal teams needed a dependable partner to own design and video production so management could focus on the learning programs themselves.
Result
We produce Viking's learning and communication materials end to end: branded booklets, handbooks, methodology documents, printable learning assets, and training video, including both AI-generated video and classic instructional video. The materials standardize how crews learn across locations, speed up content creation, and keep delivery consistent with Viking's brand. The engagement is ongoing.
Strict Brand, Global Scale, Tight Deadlines
Viking Cruises runs river, ocean, and expedition routes across Europe, the Americas, and beyond, with crews that have to be trained to a single consistent standard no matter where they work. Every piece of learning and communication material has to hold to Viking's brand guidelines exactly, with no drift, while staying clear and easy to use for an international workforce. The materials are often needed quickly, which means the production process has to move fast without compromising quality or consistency.
Key items:
- Train a large, multi-role, multi-region crew to a consistent standard
- Hold strictly to Viking brand guidelines across every asset
- Produce learning materials fast enough to match operational demand
- Free internal management from hands-on production work
One Pipeline for Print, Digital, and Video
We produce Viking's learning and communication materials end to end, from branded booklets, handbooks, and methodology documents to printable learning assets and digital e-learning content. The design work runs through Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe InDesign, which keeps every asset on-brand and print-ready. Materials are adapted for different roles and worker types, with a focus on clear visual delivery and a single consistent style that holds up across an international audience.
Training Video at Scale
Beyond documentation, we build training video content, including realistic AI-generated video produced in Synthesia and HeyGen alongside classic instructional video. These videos support Viking's global training programs, explaining work processes, guest-interaction scenarios, and service standards for different teams and locations. The AI video pipeline lets us produce and update content quickly, which keeps the training library current as standards evolve.
Speed, Scale, and Consistency
Since June 2023, we have worked as an embedded production partner for Viking's Learning & Development team, managed by a dedicated project manager who owns planning, client communication, task assignment, quality control, and on-time delivery. The relationship runs on speed and flexibility: work ships on time, frequently under tight deadlines and across time zones, including urgent requests. Per the client's public Clutch review, the partnership has increased the speed, scale, and consistency of learning delivery, broadened reach across locations, and reduced dependency on live delivery while keeping quality and branding consistent.
