Friendly competition, games with points, and rounds of applause for winning teams are all great for building camaraderie. Sticker dots and tally marks put the power to reward in each participant’s hand. Take time to learn and use names and acknowledge everyone’s unique contribution. Celebrating doesn’t need to cost a cent. But it pays dividends in engagement and eval scores. And people will walk past the training room wondering, “What’s going on in there? Sounds FUN!”

Key Outcomes:

• Explore low- and no-cost ways to celebrate throughout training
• Discuss how elements of celebration impact learners
• List activities and approaches you can implement immediately to enhance your training
