  ATD Rocky Mountain Chapter Special Event

  One-Day gamification certification 

  in Partnership with Sententia

  Game mechanics are directly linked to human desires: reward, status, achievement, self-expression, competition, and altruism. When the gamification of your training and development is done right, you give people a sense of meaning, mastery, and autonomy. 

  What would it look like to include game elements such as points, levels, challenges, rewards and leaderboards... to drive participation, engagement, and loyalty in your programs?

  Learn how to do it right with the ATD Rocky Mountain Chapter this September!

  Takeaways for Participants:
  

  • Game the System™ "game board" of the 30 necessary steps for creating successful gamified learning programs. 
  • All handouts and ancillary tools.
  • Sententia Level 1 Apprentice Certificate for attending the seminar and one upon completion of a case study for framing for each registrant (will occur after completion of the certification program and analysis and feedback of a case study under the supervision of Monica Cornetti).
  • Sententia Level 1 Apprentice digital badges with metadata about the program and work completed for certification for employers, recruiters, and potential clients. 
  • Provide HRCI, SHRM, and ATD recertification credit documentation for each registrant.
