GAINESVILLE, FL, October 20, 2012 (Press-News.org) Game On! Learning, a new player in the corporate training arena, has announced the release of two new simulations to the U.S. market, Merchants and Triskelion. Today, corporate training executives and business owners can explore the employee skill-building games at the company website, http://www.GameOnLearning.com.
Set in 15th-century Venice—where players assume the role of an aspiring trader—Merchants teaches employees the art of negotiation and persuasion. In Triskelion, players assume the role of an archaeologist in search of the lost treasure of the Order of Wisdom, learning valuable lessons along the way about improving their time-management skills.
If you are an executive at a Fortune 1000 company, you're probably aware that most of your 20-, 30-, and 40-something employees grew up playing video games—including role-playing adventures where individuals embark on a complicated quest, collecting items of value, having conversations with animated on-screen characters, and competing against friends and coworkers who have networked into the same "universe."
With its two new interactive training titles, Merchants and Triskelion, Game On! Learning plugs directly into your employees' enthusiasm for video games. In these games, players spend a total of nine to twelve hours exploring interactive worlds—15th-century Venice in Merchants, the modern day in Triskelion—in the course of which they learn valuable lessons about negotiation, persuasion, and time management. These games are ideally deployed in cohorts of 25 to 30 employees, who can progress through the action at roughly the same pace, share notes and observations, and compete with one another for the highest scores.
Corporations ranging from Avon to Sandoz Pharmaceuticals have already deployed Merchants and Triskelion outside the United States, and the feedback from users has been extraordinary. These games have been played from start to finish by over 90 percent of employees—a phenomenal completion rate for corporate training materials—and players are nearly unanimous about their effectiveness, with 99 percent saying they would recommend Merchants and Triskelion to their colleagues. Most important, the interactive, immersive format of these games guarantees that their lessons "stick," resulting in more motivated, more flexible employees that can improve your company's bottom line.
Today's tech-savvy employees demand more from their corporate training programs than lame team-training exercises or compulsory corporate retreats. With Merchants and Triskelion, your workers will learn new job skills in a game format they're already familiar with, and in a way that allows them to enjoy themselves even as they absorb valuable tips and techniques.
