Asda works with Attensi as it goes live with gamified checkout system learning at Goldthorpe store

Asda is testing out gamified learning for those employees getting to grips with its new checkout system.

This has been taking place at the grocery giant’s Goldthorpe store in Rotherham, in partnership with Attensi.

In a LinkedIn post, Bruce Gibb, Learning Design Manager at Asda, said: “Gamified learning in Asda is live! Delighted to have landed new checkout training in line with our new checkout system in the pilot store this weekend.”

He added: “This has been a project I have been lead on since taking my Learning Design role on and it’s fantastic to see it come to life.”

“The reaction from the Goldthorpe store leadership and colleagues has been fantastic, they transitioned from the games to the live environment effortlessly and the competitive nature of the solution engaged a desire to practice and repeat, driving confidence and capability.”

“A massive thank you to Owen Smith (Senior Manager Learning - Transformation at Asda) for his leadership, support and guidance while I’ve worked on this.”

Meanwhile, Rosie Deakin, Strategic Account Manager - Retail at Attensi, said: “Really proud of our partnership with Asda and to see a successful pilot training go live for shopfloor retail colleagues on their new checkout system.”
