The traditional methods of training, such as instructor-led seminars or hefty textbooks, often see challenges in keeping learners motivated and engaged throughout the process. Additionally, this type of learning delivery can often fail to provide real experiences that will help employees understand the duties they will perform within their positions, before going on the job. These elements increase the risk for employees to miss important content, make critical mistakes, and have ineffective training overall. For instance, with reading and note-taking alone, learners are lacking active participation which makes it harder to gain and retain viable information. On top of that, they are unable to practice actual scenarios that will be faced in their job roles. With simulated training, whether it be through an online desktop simulation or a virtual reality simulation, you are able to offer experiential learning that will prepare employees for success. This training method truly takes training to a deeper level because it allows learners to be immersed in the learning environment and gain real understanding, seeing the impact of correct and incorrect choices first hand. With the eliminated risk of damages and injuries, and the increased amount of interactivity and hands-on learning, business simulations are sure to overcome the challenges that are commonly found with traditional learning approaches.
