Learning online is now commonplace. We know how to use the platform features, but unfortunately, engaging attendees to participate, to come on camera, and to unmute can be like “herding cats,” as the saying goes.

The features of the platform are not what engages people, it is how we use them that makes an impact.

Establishing a comfortable, safe, and technically sound online learning environment is essential. Meaningful and relevant activities are the secret.

Like tasty treats and fresh catnip, attendees will be unable to resist actively participating in your virtual training when you use these learning activities and a “never fail” debrief strategy to involve them!

Invite participants to take charge of their learning and experience virtual training like they’ve never seen before.

Walk away with:

• 3-6 ready to use virtual learning activity examples, including one that uses escape game strategy for exploratory learning
• 1 “never fail” debrief strategy to reflect on, validate, and encourage learning
• 1 job aid to assist you to make your own virtual learning activities
• An understanding of the psychology behind virtual training design and delivery strategies that truly engage
