The world of Learning & Development (L&D) is evolving fast, bringing both new opportunities and challenges. We all want training programs that truly engage learners and leave a lasting impact. But let me be honest—sometimes, it feels like we’re just throwing information out there, hoping something sticks.
That’s why I find the idea of gamification and microlearning so fascinating. But I have some basic questions
Could they be the game-changers we’ve been looking for? Do they actually work together to create better learning experiences? That’s exactly what we’re diving into today!
And to help us with this, I’m thrilled to welcome Sahar Khan, Assistant General Human Resources Manager at BMW Group. Sahar brings a wealth of experience and today, she’ll help us explore the real impact of gamification and microlearning.
