Post title: Thanks!
Thanks to both of you for your input on this, it's really useful! I'll be speaking to those involved in the project this week, so will definitely bring up the option of dubbing. I think the decision to sub the video was based on cost, but it looks like dubbing won't make a huge difference price-wise if we manage to do it inhouse, and if it makes the training videos clearer, that's always good! We work with microfinance institutions in countries where those involved in the training aren't always the most tech-savvy, so any way of avoiding the distraction of subtitles and focusing them on the actual learning process will be great.
I'll be sure to post back here and let you know how it all went - thanks again!

P.S. Thanks for the link to your website José - that's a really interesting article!
