ThoughtLab: Make Your Virtual Training Stick: How to Boost Engagement and Impact
Virtual training has transformed L&D. It’s scalable, flexible, and here to stay.
But even with strong content, getting people to actively engage remains a real challenge. Many sessions still feel like a one-way broadcast, where cameras are off, participation is low, and it’s hard to tell what’s actually landing.
The problem is that when engagement drops, so does learning, retention, and the real-world impact of your learning programs.
The tricky part? Most of us don’t have a clear way to assess what’s working—and what’s not—so it's easy to repeat the same patterns without realizing where the gaps are.
Enter the Online Engagement Scorecard
Join this free 90-minute interactive session with online engagement specialist Gwyn Wansbrough, where you’ll use the Online Engagement Scorecard to get that clarity. You’ll complete a quick diagnostic and receive instant insights that you can use straight away to increase engagement in your sessions and L&D programs.
We’ll unpack the results together to identify what’s driving engagement—and what might be holding it back focusing on the 4 keys that shape online engagement: Design, Delivery, Interaction, and Tech.
Notice:
This session includes (optional) breakout rooms and interactive group work.
