Irresistible Virtual Training

Learning online is now commonplace. Unfortunately, engaging attendees to participate, to come on camera, and to unmute can be like “herding cats,” as the saying goes. What better way than to challenge them with an activities like scavenger hunts and other active breakout ideas? 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.

• Apply 3-5 virtual learning activity examples to your own virtual training programs
• Identify how to use scavenger hunts and other breakout activity strategies for active learning
• Use a “never fail” debrief strategy to reflect on, validate, and encourage learning
• Refer to a job aid to assist you to make your own virtual learning activities
