Level up your recruiters with our Virtual Immersive Learning Scenarios

In the world of online learning and development, the term ‘gamification’ is nothing new. While many training providers talk in excited tones about their game-changing gamification ideas, the reality is that it’s something that’s become expected, not extraordinary.

The term itself was first used around 2002, but the idea of gamification has been with us for considerably longer. It’s there in the way Scouts earn badges for their achievements. It’s even there in the points-based systems of retail loyalty programmes. But as technology has continued to evolve, there are new ways to make learning as engaging as gaming—and we’re constantly striving to stay ahead of the curve.

With Juice Virtual Immersive Learning Scenarios, your recruiters can step into a virtual world that brings the skills and behaviours they’re working on to life. They’ll be led through the process of guiding a recruitment team to success, supported by insights from sales expert Gavin Ingham. And they’ll learn skills in a way that’s more memorable and impactful—here’s why.

Skills and lessons connected to reality

One of the biggest challenges in training is guiding people to use what they learn out in the real world. The most engaging, exciting course content is pointless if nobody makes the connection to how they behave on a daily basis.

Immersive learning roots training in specific scenarios connected to the working life of a recruiter. Instead of context-free questions, learners are presented with the same challenges they might encounter when they’re sourcing candidates, managing teams, or working with clients. As a result, immersive learning constantly anchors new ideas and skills to their real-world applications—and increases the likelihood of recruiters recalling what they learned when they encounter those situations in real life.

Engaging your recruiters for more memorable training

Before your recruiters can learn anything, they need to be engaged and invested. When training feels boring, it’s less likely to deliver the results you need. A 2022 study in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology tested the impact of boredom on memory encoding and found that a lack of engagement led to a decreased working memory. In short: when learners are bored, they don’t learn.

Immersive learning is more than a guide to best practice—it’s a rich, multisensory experience that triggers an emotional connection. This actively improves a learner’s ability to remember new information and solidify key learning concepts.

An opportunity to practice skills without risk

When you think about the things you’re best at, there’s a good chance they’re the things you do all the time. Practice and repetition are key to the way we learn—but when client accounts are at stake, it takes real confidence for recruiters to experiment with new approaches!

Immersive learning is a safe space to try new ideas, not just helping to cement skills into long-term memory but also building confidence. When recruiters can see how certain behaviours work as part of a virtual scenario, they can become more familiar with applying their skills—and more likely to transfer them to the non-virtual world.
