In this webinar you’ll: - Be inspired by trainers who have successfully incorporated games into their training - Understand how easy it is to create a game with your content and deploy it anywhere - Identify ways to unveil patterns of individual and group engagement with your material, knowledge gaps, and personality behaviors with player analytics
