Digital Video Editing Course with Synergy Sports Learn the tool that all 30 NBA teams use
When NBA teams have a job opening they are flooded with applicants of all ages and experience levels. How do they choose who is right for their organization? Often by looking for candidates with a unique skill profile, something in their resume that sets them apart from the rest of the stack.
Digital Video Editing with Synergy Sports is exactly the type of differentiating skill basketball teams and leagues look for. Every NBA and WNBA team uses Synergy, as well as NCAA men’s and women’s basketball teams, Olympic teams, International League teams, and multiple media outlets -and yet - not many people have this skill.
SMWW will help you stand out from the crowd by learning the technology basketball teams need!
Our 8-week online course is taught by James Kerti, who is also a proud graduate of our SMWW Basketball GM and Scouting course. This is the only Synergy Sports training course available – let me repeat - this course is the only way to learn this skill outside of working for a team that uses it.
Unlike most online classes, we focus our program on interactive zoom video chats directly with your course mentors, which allows you the opportunity to build personal relationships and rapport with these successful leaders in the world of digital video editing. After completing our Digital Video Editing course, we will help you redesign your resume to highlight your new skills and include that you have been taught first-hand by James Kerti. Now that is powerful!
Learn this skill and change your entire career outlook.

Why Synergy Sports is Such an Important Technology to Learn
All 30 NBA teams, the WNBA and NBA Development League, hundreds of International basketball teams and thousands of college and universities, (NCAA & NAIA) use Synergy Sports Technology.
Synergy is one of the most sophisticated video and statistical tools in sports, and knowing this technology is a perfect way to launch your career in professional sports. Imagine for a moment you are competing against 75 people for a job opening with the Boston Celtics or the Chicago Sky, what do you have that will make you stand out against that crowd? Charisma, GPA, and passion only get you so far, you need tangible skills that teams need. Synergy Sports is that tangible skill.
"After coaching for over 20 years, 11 in the NBA, it became clear to me that it's not just about having lots of data it's about having the right data," says Garrick Barr CEO of Synergy Sports Technology. "At Synergy we are dedicated to giving GMs, coaches, and fans the right data to develop and evaluate players, predict player performance, and build lineups and game plans."
Knowledge of Synergy Sports sets you apart from the crowd.
What is Synergy Sports Technology?
Synergy's success is built on proprietary technology that links an amazing array of sports data and video clips to create visual statistics and analytics about players, teams, and games. All data is tied to matching video, resulting in auto-generated edits that once took hours to create.
Synergy provides an infinite sorting of statistics and video clips in real time, giving coaches and scouts endless opportunities to discover answers to important questions as they formulate winning strategies. Synergy's technology dissects and analyzes every play, every player move, defensive techniques – then sorts those details and pairs it with supporting video. The impact of such detailed and wide-ranging analysis has revolutionized the game of basketball and how it is coached. The advantage is only available to Synergy subscribers.
Some highlights of Synergy's service include:
Teams log onto the Synergy website from anywhere in the world and stream automated video edits from college or professional games.
Synergy lets you "follow your nose" like never before to become familiar with players or teams in a very short period of time: Tired of watching a player's pick and rolls? Switch to his ISOs, spot-ups, transitions or any other play-type without having to wait for a video staff member to work up requested edits.
Whenever watching a video, staff can easily tag favorite clips to create their own custom edits for others to watch. Any staff member you authorize can watch these edits from anywhere in the world on the Synergy website.
Custom edits created by a team's staff (as well as Synergy's automated edits) can be viewed in a wide variety of ways including iPads, DVDs or computer projection.
When on the road, clients can transfer video to their laptop's hard drive for portable viewing while on a plane or bus, etc. Due to their advanced technology, games are downloaded very quickly and several games can be downloaded overnight without a hitch.
Games are available to watch as they occur. Synergy logs in "real-time" so there is very little lag time between the action and your ability to watch it.

If you need hands on experience scouting, including feedback and formatting reports, then NetScouts has an ideal option, with their in-depth scouting program. Having spent a full NCAA season scouting for them across the US, I had support the whole way. Entry into games, great seats and excellent advice. Now, with NetScouts teaming up with SMWW, they've gone to a new level. I highly recommend this program to anyone looking to start out in the basketball industry.
