AllenComm Named as Top 20 Gamification Provider by Training Industry

Allen Communication’s business-focused, gamified training solutions rank on leading industry list for third consecutive year

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah Sept. 26, 2016 – Allen Communication, a worldwide leader in training solutions, has been named to Training Industry’s Top 20 Gamification Companies list for the third consecutive year. This key industry list ranks the leading gamification companies in the learning and development industry.

Gamification has become an integral part of instructional design. Yet with its use, abuse is also possible when companies gamify training without any instructional purpose, said Ron Zamir, AllenComm president and CEO.

“Our recognition, now for the third year in a row in this area, is a testament to how we guide our clients and develop gamification elements that help change behaviors and enhance the user experience.” Zamir said, “At Allen, we believe gamification has opened up many opportunities for virtual and augmented reality add-ons and new vistas in the corporate training space.”

According to TrainingIndustry.com, Allen was chosen for the list based on the features and capabilities of their gamification products and services. Additional selection criteria include:

  • Company size and growth potential,
  • Quality and number of clients/users,
  • Geographic reach, and
  • Awards, recognition and competitive differentiation.

Allen Communication’s approach to gamification joins its other innovations in areas like microlearning, engagement portals and engaging media to help organizations make their content effective at meeting business goals, and more accessible and engaging to employees and customers.

“Gaming, and the use of games in corporate training, is serious business,” said Doug Harward, chief executive officer at Training Industry, Inc. “These training companies bring gaming and training together in a way that can help businesses achieve learning and development goals by improving the efficiency and effectiveness of training initiatives.”

This is the 19th award for Allen Communication in 2016. AllenComm is also on TrainingIndustry.com’s Top 20 lists for content development and learning portals, as well as elearningindustry.com’s Top 10 content development list. For more information about Allen Communication, visit allencomm.com.
