Facts and figures achieved with Practify
10
modules of a leadership development programme were practifyed with between-module tasks, so our longest learning process supported by Practify was 10 months long
3000+
training participants were supported by Practify till 2023
57-100%
of training participants actively engaged in solving follow-up tasks on Practify
Practify is based on four ideas
1.
Training follow-up
makes a difference
According to research, without follow-up, just 15% of participants use what they learn. However, that percentage rises to over 85% with an effective training follow-up process. (Brinkerhoff, 2006)
With Practify, participants regularly receive small tasks designed to help them apply their new knowledge in on-the-job situations. These micro-activities help develop targeted skills.

2.
Gamification
for engagement, ease and fun in learning
Gamification is a framework that makes the learning process fun. There are different ways to build a game around follow-up.
- Setting goals and introducing a reward system generates excitement and provides an added incentive to continue self-development.
- Storytelling speaks to our inner child and awakens a curiosity that opens us up to learning, socialising and achieving.
- Practify allows the trainer to build games for participants with a variety of personality types (socialisers, achievers, explorers and those with a competitive edge).

3.
Social learning
for inspiration and support
Participants inspire and support each other in the learning process by sharing the journey. They share experiences, answer each other’s questions, help find solutions and offer feedback.
Practify boosts social interaction, which in turn, helps the group become a learning community. New information channels open up as Practify allows colleagues to communicate with each other no matter where they are. Organisational culture develops by shaping behavioural routines throughout the follow-up process.

Measuring and reporting
for transparent results
All stakeholders in the learning process want to gauge individual and group progress. With Practify, game statistics monitor progress during the follow-up. At the end of the follow-up, final results are exported into a project closure report, which is easy to present.
The qualitative and quantitative results of the group can be used to measure how the training programme has affected behavioural change.
