Gamified Training | Serious Business Game Training
Serious Business Games are training courses and at the same time animating games, which were not developed for entertainment purposes. In technologically advanced areas, such as medicine, aviation or the military, numerous Serious Business Games have already been developed for educational purposes. In the area of business training, however, they have only been introduced in recent years.
Classroom training is complex to organize and costly to deliver. Traditional e-learning courses are not engaging and have low completion and knowledge transfer rates… More organizations are using Serious Business Games to effectively teach the important soft skills that are vital for advancement.
In the context of company training, Serious Business Games offer users numerous gamification techniques for their training, which allow them to further improve the benefits gained through the courses.
Another priority in educational games is experiential learning through the player’s handling of learning objects in simulations. Serious business games offer the user the opportunity to acquire the content either independently or in cooperation or interaction within a learning and training community. This is accompanied by an intrinsic motivation to learn, since the participant is rewarded by the momentum or positive gaming experience. The possibility to provide employees with normative knowledge in the form of “knowing that”, e.g. for the execution of individual work processes and methods, as well as the simulative implementation in the form of “knowing how” for practical application, is the special strength of this form of learning.

Game-based-Training
Learning should not mean rote memorization. Actually it means acquiring the skills needed to improve as an individual in a variety of situations.
The game-based training allows a group of people to share a practical gamified learning experience and does not require all its students meeting in one place at any given time .
Gamification techniques included in our products make game- based training users to motivate themselves through competition, dipping them into a learning experience that transcends that of a traditional e-learning course.
Game-based learning
Game-based learning ensures skills learning because students are able to put skills into practice and learn from their own situations, decisions, and mistakes. Improving soft skills is really hard to do by just reading a manual. Readers learn the techniques but do not acquire the skill itself.
In a game-based learning format students overcome different game levels and, through this process, the game ensures each level of delivered educational content is actually learned. In short, the student learns the skill by practicing and improving, so at the end of the course he will be able to put the skill into practice in a real situation.
Game-based learning ensures not only skills learning but also builds self confidence. During the game the student understands how to use the skills and how to apply them in the different simulated situations in a safe and zero risk environment thanks to its one-to one nature.
Game-based learning in corporate training
In a new era of corporate training, frequently terms like gamification and game-based learning are used as synonyms. While both enhance motivation and engagement, only the game-based learning aspect is linked to the cognitive-improvement area of the course where the learning and development happens; gamification simply refers to the techniques used to increase motivation, make training fun, engage students and improve completion rates.
In brief, the quality of game-based learning corporate training depends on the quality of the course content and on the level of interaction that allows students to practice and learn while playing.
Game-based learning for soft skills development
Soft skills are personal attributes that enable effective individual interactions and, accordingly, enhance career development and job performance. Game-based learning products are especially suited to soft skills training because of the way soft skills learned. Soft skills have to be practiced in order to be learned.
In traditional instructor-led training, the instructor would have participants engage in role playing games and other activities to practice and learn soft skills. With the advent of online game-based learning, students are able to do the same in a virtual world unharnessed by physical limitations like a classroom.
Gamification and corporate training
The use of gamification elements is getting increasingly commonplace in corporate training. The use of gamification or game-like elements in virtual learning environments increases students motivation and completion rates.
Gamification benefits has a higher impact when applied to video game format courses. Video games create an attractive environment that enhances learning and motivate students to progress. The use of gamification elements and videogames in corporate training has particular benefits. They are able to pursue together the same objective living a common learning adventure.
Serious business games in corporate training
Serious business games or educational games for corporate training, are games designed for a primary purpose other than pure entertainment. Originally serious business games were designed for technical skills development, in sectors like medicine, military or aviation. The use of serious games in corporate training is relatively recent, however it is forecasted to be one of the fastest growing sectors in the training industry.
Well-designed serious (educational) games for corporate training, make learning fun, challenging and rewarding. Learners do not realize that they are learning when engaged in a game. Serious games are used in corporate training in a variety of subjects.
Despite the fact that it is a relatively new term in the training industry, the results have already been very positive. Serious games enhance knowledge acquisition and skills development by facing the learner to different situations, challenges and problems..
