BNP Paribas Personal Finance's challenge

Time management, negotiation and leadership are cross-cutting topics, and they were at the heart of BNP Paribas Personal Finance's training needs.

The head of training had looked for solutions, especially in e-learning, but none satisfied her or met her goals. And sitting people in a classroom for two days straight wasn't the answer either.

  • Train cross-cutting skills.
  • Find e-learning that lives up to the goals.
  • Avoid two straight days of classroom training.

The solution

BNP Paribas Personal Finance chose Game Strategies video games because they matched exactly what it was looking for: learning by playing, at your own pace, without feeling you're in a classroom.

Among the favourites are Triskelion, for its puzzles that call on a good deal of general knowledge, and Pacific, which leads each player to ask questions about themselves.

In their own words

I searched without finding much, particularly in e-learning, which didn't satisfy me and didn't meet my objectives at all.

I've known for a long time that we learn well by playing, and that we also learn well without realising we're learning.

Pacific leads each person who plays to ask themselves questions. And when you ask yourself questions, you already have part of the answer.

The results

Training is no longer just a learning objective delivered in a classroom. Each person progresses at their own pace and, according to the head of training, may well learn better and more meaningfully.

For BNP Paribas Personal Finance, Game Strategies video games deliver what it expected from its cross-cutting skills training.
