Using Games to Train Employees on Anti-Corruption Law

What is it about?

This study extends a previous study on the effectiveness of gamifying training in the information security compliance setting of a business to the corporate compliance setting of a business. The study specifically looks at how using games in training can help employees better understand and follow anti-corruption regulations. 158 employees of a large, multinational bank were evaluated and asked about gamified training. Results of the study find that employees liked the gamified training better than the traditional, non-gamified training. A post-training knowledge test also showed that gamified training improved employees’ understanding of the bank’s policies to follow anti-corruption laws.
