Make Your Training "STICK"

One of the best ways to make training “stick” is to allow time for participants to review material that has been presented. In fact, material that has been reviewed by participants is five times as likely to be retained as material that has not. Reviewing allows participants to “save” the information in their brains. a great technique that promotes review is to always end your training program with a competitive review game, It's fun great way to end your training on a high note and at the same time give a great wrap up and reminder of all the learning points and key concepts of the training and can help you gauge how effective the learning process was.

Easily Add Fun, Excitement & Competition To Your Class

That’s why we add a new, exciting and competitive Power Point Review Game to each of our full training packages that you can use to easily review key questions from your training program by engaging your class participants in a fun, energetic competition and ensure your they stay engaged till the very end of your training. We believe so much in this review game technique that it became part of our training packages. Now each of our Full training packages includes a Power Point Game show competitive review exercise pre-packed with questions and answer. Just run the game and watch excitement rise as teams compete to answer.
