We bring in-game learning to online training because play is the brain's favorite way to learn.
As a result, our courses are fun.
Thirty years ago, Christopher Balmford started running plain-language training. He has helped people everywhere write in a way that delivers the many benefits of plain language. Now he’s putting his course online, as a game. I’m looking forward to playing.
ISO’s plain language standard has taken plain language to the next level: it is available in more than 20 countries and 14 languages.

Here’s a fun game!
I would recommend this training to my colleagues who are involved in the creation of content, whether user interfaces or documentation. It was informative, fun, and definitely worth the time to complete.
Having the lessons more like a game than reading through a manual is a better way of getting the messages across.
Using videos and games is much more engaging than reading through a manual or sitting through a lecture. I would think that most people would prefer this type of corporate training.
It was engaging, clear and educational.
This might be the first time that, having completed a training session, I wish there were more immediately available.
The videos are so fun, and the information so clearly given, that what is being taught is learned almost without effort.
The training is clear and effective, and the delivery is fun and engaging, so it is easy to learn what is taught. And what is taught can be instantly used.
I actually really enjoyed it — and I am an old grump.
