Is Your Current Training Program Effective?

Retention and effective training go hand in hand. With 87% of employers prioritizing retention, it's concerning that 25% of new hires leave within their first year, often due to lack of engagement.

A key solution: make training enjoyable. Employees are less likely to quit when their workplace fosters fun, meaningful learning experiences. By delivering training in creative, interactive ways, organizations can build a culture where employees feel valued, empowered, and motivated to stay and grow.
