The 5 Best Practices for Innovative and Engaging Training Programs

As part of our series dedicated to training departments aiming to design new learning pathways, we had the pleasure of hosting Fasterclass during our latest Masterclass Testimonial. Their unique approach? Modeling highly effective management and leadership training programs that seamlessly blend synchronous and asynchronous learning.

πŸ”Ž 1. Segment Training Over Time to Reinforce Learning

Effective learning doesn’t occur in a single multi-hour session. At Fasterclass, a typical program spans one month, alternating between e-learning and virtual classroom workshops on Glowbl.

Standard Format:

  • βœ… 4 synchronous workshops on Glowbl (1.5 hours each)
  • βœ… 1 hour of e-learning per week (3–5 minute videos + exercises)

This structure promotes repetition and gradual assimilation while offering participants significant flexibility. Bien Enseigner

“Training is no longer endured; it becomes a routine integrated into the schedule.”

🎯 2. Transform Passive Learners into Active Participants

Fasterclass’s motto: turn passive learners into active participants.

How?

  • πŸ‘‰ Glowbl workshops are entirely practice-oriented, not mere lectures.
  • πŸ‘‰ E-learning modules prepare participants in advance, ensuring synchronous sessions focus on discussion and application.

Fasterclass pays special attention to its video capsules, a true hallmark of their methodology.

Impact:

  • πŸ“Œ 6 hours of active practice versus 1 hour of passive content
  • πŸ“Œ Maximum engagement through a “flipped classroom” approach

“You can’t be checking emails during a Glowbl session. The format compels 100% involvement.”

🀝 3. Leverage Collective Intelligence and Peer Learning

Collective intelligence is a powerful learning lever. Fasterclass structures its programs to encourage collaboration.

Keys to Success:

  • βœ… Small group work (maximum 12 participants) to foster interaction
  • βœ… Alternating between breakout sessions and plenary discussions
  • βœ… Weekly rituals to maintain engagement

“Spending quality time with colleagues changes team dynamics. Some even reconnect through these sessions.”

πŸ“… 4. Meticulous Planning and Follow-Up Ensure Success

A successful program goes beyond content; organization is crucial.

  • βœ… Everything is scheduled a month in advance: invitations sent, calendars blocked, expectations clarified.
  • βœ… “Marketing” the training: Fasterclass collaborates with HR to tease the program’s benefits before it starts.
  • βœ… Kick-off with a Glowbl session to set the tone.
  • βœ… Data analysis for rigorous tracking and personalized follow-ups.

“An untracked training is a failed training. We follow up, motivate, supportβ€”and it works!”

πŸ’‘ 5. Equip Trainers for Optimal Delivery

Glowbl plays a pivotal role in the Fasterclass experience. Why?

  • βœ… Modeled pedagogical flow: everything is ready; no need to reinvent each session.
  • βœ… Integrated facilitation tools: timers, collaborative notes, seamless breakout groups.
  • βœ… User-friendly interface: trainers can focus on facilitation and interaction.
  • βœ… Glowbl’s conviviality and session activities stimulate attendance.

“On Glowbl, everything is set for trainers to do what they do best: facilitate and drive action.”


🌟 Glowbl’s Key Contribution to Fasterclass’s Success

The partnership between Fasterclass and Glowbl is a story of joint innovation. By integrating Glowbl early into their programs, they achieved:

  • πŸ“Œ Engaging workshops where learners are active participants
  • πŸ“Œ Standardized and replicable programs without compromising pedagogical quality
  • πŸ“Œ Large-scale training with high interactivity

The results speak for themselves: over 90% attendance in virtual classrooms and a 98% program completion rate! This contrasts with the typical 60% completion rate for e-learning-only programs.
