EVOLUTION OF GAMING
THEORY AND MECHANICS
Game-based learning enhances motivation, engagement
and knowledge retention. Early implementation of
gaming focused on replacing the classroom experience
with a game. The next evolutionary step in gaming saw
us learning how to embed gaming programs within the
learning program. We are now learning that at the heart of
every engaging game (e.g., video games) lies an enticing
story that pulls players in, appealing to their motivations
and emotions. The evolution of gaming theory has found
that using the principle of storytelling and engagement
is key to appealing to learner emotions while enhancing
learner engagement and recall.
INSOURCED
SPEND INCREASING
SMALLER CLASS SIZES
As virtual delivery platforms and online training programs
have increased in popularity and adoption, average class
enrollments continue to reduce in size. In the days of
traditional classrooms, the objective was often to increase
class sizes to amortize the fixed costs associated with an
instructor and classroom across multiple students. There
was always a conflict with the notion that smaller class
sizes were better for students; while larger class sizes were
more efficient for the business. Now the business' needs
and learners' needs are aligned with the idea that training
is becoming more affordable to deliver in smaller groups.

Driven by a performing economy, buy-side companies are
hiring more internal staff for training than in previous years.
This is driving up their mix of internal to external spend. Just a
few years ago, the average spend for buy-side companies was
around 58 percent for internal resources and 42 percent for
external. Our most recent study showed that over the last two
years companies have moved the balance to more of a 60/40 or
an expected 61/39 split in 2016. So while the overall corporate
training market is still growing, we are seeing a relatively flat
spend occurring with suppliers, especially with large scale BPO
engagements. This trend may be short lived depending on
the future global economy. Our experience has shown that as
the economy improves, companies tend to hire more staff for
training. As the economy declines, companies tend to move fulltime resources to variable resources.
