Orientation & Training
Attract and Keep Staff with Interactive Employee Training Games
Your goal is to attract and keep employees. If you want to stand out from other employers, consider using a custom scavenger hunt to make your onboarding, orientation and training more engaging. Here’s how a custom scavenger hunt could be used to gamify your employee training…
Onboarding
Most new employees experience onboarding the same way: stacks of paperwork, long presentations, manuals to read, and information overload. While these traditional approaches may communicate important information, they rarely create memorable experiences or help new hires feel connected to the organization. A new hire onboarding scavenger hunt can make onboarding feel energizing instead of overwhelming.
At Masters of the Hunt, we create customized scavenger hunts that turn employee orientation and training into an experience people actually enjoy. Whether your organization occupies a single office, a sprawling headquarters, or multiple buildings across a corporate campus, our hunts can be designed to help employees learn, explore, and connect while having fun.
Orientation
A new employee's first few days can set the tone for their entire experience with a company. People learn differently, so instead of just asking people to sit through hours of presentations or read through a training manual, why not immerse them in a hands-on challenge?
An orientation scavenger hunt app or a hunt that is delivered old-school on paper, can be created that allows participants to complete missions, solve clues, answer trivia questions, and interact with locations and people throughout the workplace. New hires actively participate in the learning process rather than passively absorbing information. The result is better retention, higher engagement, and a more positive first impression.
Corporate Campus Tour Hunts
One of the biggest challenges for new employees is simply learning where everything is. Important locations such as conference rooms, break areas, mailrooms, wellness centers, supply rooms, and team workspaces can be difficult to remember after a traditional tour.
Imagine the difference a customized corporate campus tour game would make! It transforms orientation or the opening of a new campus into an interactive journey. Participants can be challenged to visit specific locations and complete photo and video tasks, answer questions, or solve clues that tie in important details about the company and location as they tour.
For organizations with large campuses, GPS corporate campus tours that use GPS hotspots to guide employees throughout the property can be designed with challenges unlocking when team members physically arrive at key locations. GPS hunts are perfect for headquarters with numerous buildings, universities, hospitals, manufacturing facilities, resorts - anyone with a sprawling campus.
For smaller offices or companies located in one office building a tailor-made scavenger hunt can be created in which employees simply tap on icons on a game board to unlock challenges. These challenges can direct participants to important locations such as conference rooms, mail rooms, Human Resources office, IT help desks, break rooms and more.
Instead of simply telling employees where these locations are, a hunt allows them to discover them on their own, making the information much easier to remember.
Bring Company Culture to Life
Culture isn't learned by reading a handbook. It's experienced.
A custom scavenger hunt gives organizations an opportunity to introduce employees to company values, traditions, and history in creative ways. Participants might solve puzzles related to company milestones, answer questions about leadership, or uncover stories that highlight the organization's mission and culture. They can also contribute their thoughts about the culture by sharing in video challenges they must record to earn points.
Because the experience is interactive, employees feel more connected to the organization and begin to understand what makes the company unique. These shared experiences also help create excitement and build enthusiasm during those important first days.
Create Interactive Employee Training Games
Training doesn't have to feel like a test. Scavenger hunts are interactive employee training games that can reinforce information in a way that's both educational and entertaining. Rather than assigning employees a manual and requiring them to complete a quiz afterward, training content becomes part of the game.
Scavenger hunt challenges can include:
Trivia that ties in product knowledge questions, safety procedures, compliance topics, etc.
Making videos where they must complete customer service scenarios, explain specific processes, or state why they’re proud to be working there
Taking photos that show they’ve located an important area or person, or that communicates they understand certain company policies
Solving clues that show they understand specific processes or iIndustry knowledge
Our bespoke scavenger hunt creators ensure your specific training objectives are woven into the gamified experience.
