The short-term joint staff training took place between the 26^th of February 2019 and the 1^st of March 2019. It focused on gamification methodology and Z generation, how to apply gamification in WBL. It was held in order to review and test the developed training materials, and to train our partners’ training staff on how to deliver it in companies in different countries.

This was a good opportunity to reflect more deeply on the usefulness of the project and the potential impact on our target group. The participants of the course took an insight glimpse of the methodology and the Guidebook on topics of learning and teaching methods, especially at the DEMETRA model for plastic sector.

Each project partner was represented. TREBAG involved external gamification experts and a trainer to deliver a high quality training.

Main topics of the training:

26^th February
