This kind of boredom makes it tough for employees to truly engage in learning, complete their courses, and ultimately, achieve the training goals that\u2019ll help your company succeed.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a sad reality, but it doesn\u2019t need to be your reality. Because we\u2019re about to offer you a ton of fun ideas to motivate employees during training. Grab your coffee and we\u2019ll jump right in.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>7 ways to motivate employees to engage in training<\/h2>\n<p>You already know that training drives business results, or you wouldn\u2019t be investing in it. But when employees find their courses dry, inconvenient or inapplicable to their jobs, your investment isn\u2019t going to give you the results you\u2019re looking for. In this case, it\u2019s time to start implementing simple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/2018\/03\/learner-engagement-strategies.html\">learner engagement strategies<\/a> &#8211; just like the ones below!<\/p>\n<h3>Make training practical and job-relevant<\/h3>\n<p>The best way to motivate employees to participate in training is by making every course practical and relevant. Analyze performance objectives, ask employees what they\u2019re struggling with or how they could improve, and then give them the training they need to get better at their jobs.<\/p>\n<p>Once they start practicing new skills in the workplace, and see how their performance improves, employees will understand the benefits of training. Then, the next time a course is allocated to them, they\u2019ll grab it with both hands.<\/p>\n<h3>Make training a company priority<\/h3>\n<p>Imagine you\u2019re in a training workshop with the head of your department. She huffs and puffs, says that she has \u201cbetter things to spend her time on\u201d, and only half engages in the group activities. Are you likely to feel motivated to engage in training? Nah. Because it feels like the company doesn\u2019t even value training.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, when training goals are set, and you\u2019re recognized and rewarded for achieving them, you\u2019ll become a self-motivated learner &#8211; even when it comes to compulsory training. So, start offering training incentives for employees. These could be certificates, a little public recognition, or even additional leave days.<\/p>\n<h3>Use a mobile-friendly LMS with microlearning features<\/h3>\n<p>Wondering how to motivate reluctant corporate learners? Make training convenient and easy to access. There are two ways to do this. First, leverage a powerful LMS that\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/mobile\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">compatible with Android and iOS<\/a>. This way employees get to learn whenever they want, wherever they want, using whichever device they choose.<\/p>\n<p>Next, use microlearning best practices when designing your courses. This is one of the best ways to motivate employees to train, because it makes training quick. Employees get to consume bite-sized chunks of information exactly when they need them most. Less hassle, more engagement.<\/p>\n<h3>Employ gamification strategies<\/h3>\n<p>Games are fun, which is why the results of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.talentlms.com\/blog\/gamification-survey-results\/\">our recent survey<\/a> aren\u2019t surprising. We discovered that more than 80% of employees who receive gamified training feel motivated, while over 60% who receive non-gamified training feel bored and unproductive. In other words, your training needs gamification now!<\/p>\n<p>Find an LMS with gamification features like certificates, badges, and leaderboards, and then start incorporating them into your courses. This could be one of your most effective motivational strategies to engage employees in training.<\/p>\n<h3>Involve employees in the learning process<\/h3>\n<p>There\u2019s a quote that says \u201cLearning is not a spectator sport\u201d, and it really speaks to what motivates workers when it comes to training. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/2017\/05\/active-learning-methods-engaged-corporate-learners.html\">Active learning methods<\/a> involve employees in the learning process by requiring them to participate in activities, make decisions, and reflect on them. There are a number of ways to motivate employees to train using active learning.<\/p>\n<p>For example, branching scenarios and simulations place employees in realistic workplace situations, and then allow them to make decisions without the usual risk. Other training strategies to motivate employees to participate in learning include group assignments and interactive infographics.<\/p>\n<h3>Offer regular feedback and quick wins<\/h3>\n<p>When anyone asks us how to keep employees motivated to complete training, we tell them to offer regular feedback. If this feels like a big ask, we\u2019re also here to tell you that feedback can be both frequent and easy. Yes, you can use the quiz feature on your LMS to give employees automated feedback throughout their training course.<\/p>\n<p>These quizzes help employees to gauge how well they\u2019re doing, and which areas of content they might need to revisit. When they pass a quiz, employees might receive a badge, or move to the next \u2018level\u2019 of the course. These little wins along the way will keep pushing them forward until they\u2019ve completed their training.<\/p>\n<h3>Offer employees personal growth<\/h3>\n<p>Urgh. Compliance training. This is just one example of training that\u2019s necessary, but also generic. While we\u2019d never tell you to scrap important regulatory and job-specific training, we would suggest that you also offer employees learning opportunities that spark a personal interest.<\/p>\n<p>There are many ideas to motivate employees through personal development. Send an email asking each employee to tell you what kind of training they\u2019d like to get. Make your sales training courses (or any other courses you think of) accessible to other staff in the company. You could even encourage employees to complete MOOCs in their personal time, and then reward them by sponsoring the cost of their certificate.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-7547 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners.png\" alt=\"7 Ways to Motivate Employees to Engage in Training - eFront Blog\" width=\"1201\" height=\"314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners.png 1201w, https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners-300x78.png 300w, https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners-768x201.png 768w, https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners-1024x268.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners-810x212.png 810w, https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/motivating-learners-1140x298.png 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1201px) 100vw, 1201px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Why training should be less boring and more engaging<\/h2>\n<p>Whether you\u2019re offering mandatory training or opt-in learning opportunities, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/2017\/02\/blended-learning-strategies-that-work.html\">blended learning strategies<\/a> or fully online courses, your training needs to be engaging. Here are some of the reasons why this is so important.<\/p>\n<h3>Happier employees are better at their jobs<\/h3>\n<p>When you use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.efrontlearning.com\/blog\/2016\/10\/powerful-teaching-strategies-engaged-corporate-learners.html\">teaching strategies to engage learners<\/a>, employees learn more, and when they learn more, they feel themselves growing and improving. This often makes employees better at their jobs, which earns them recognition and rewards (like promotions).<\/p>\n<p>You can guess what else this makes employees, right? Happy! Because who doesn\u2019t love appreciation and the odd promotion? So, very simply, avoiding boring training gives you happier staff who are better at their jobs.<\/p>\n<h3>Reduced staff turnover<\/h3>\n<p>Did you know that a large portion of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/news.release\/jolts.nr0.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">American employees<\/a> leave their jobs within the first two months of starting? Or that the cost of each one of these lost employees is enormous? Yip. Turnover is an expensive problem, and it can be solved with motivational learning strategies.<\/p>\n<p>Just look at the point above. All it takes is a few easy ways to motivate employees to train, and they\u2019ll become happier, higher-performing employees. Do you know of many happy, high-performing employees who are looking for a way out? Nope, neither do we. Which is why engaging training is your secret to reduced employee turnover.<\/p>\n<h3>Better customer service<\/h3>\n<p>Motivating employees to complete training by making it fun is also a great way to improve customer service. Why? Because when employees truly engage in learning (because it\u2019s fun, convenient and relevant), their knowledge, skills and behavior in the workplace will improve.<\/p>\n<p>So, whether product, sales or soft skills training, make learning engaging and your employees are going to be better equipped and more confident to deal with customers. Of course, helpful, knowledgeable staff and high-quality products and services are going to create satisfied customers. In fact, customers will probably become repeat purchasers, and might even tell their friends about the amazing experience they had with your company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br \/>\nTraining is necessary, but it can also be fun. Actually, it <em>needs<\/em> to be fun, or your employees are going to avoid training &#8211; forever. So, start implementing the ways to motivate employees to train that we\u2019ve listed above, and your employees will be begging for more courses in no time.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For many employees, training is about as exciting as a trip to the Bureau of Consular Affairs (Zzzz &#8211; am I right?).
