Experiential learning – or Learning by Doing

We are passionate about designing serious training games for trainers - to help you deliver effective learning outcomes.

Our philosophy is that learning by doing is the best way to learn. Northgate training games, training activities and business simulations require delegate participation, the vital ingredient for effective learning. As the famous philosopher, Confucius, said:

I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand.

This highly regarded learning method has many advantages because it:

• engages and motivates participants
• allows for learning from each other (peer teaching)
• offers a chance for feedback and reflection
• encourages the development of workplace skills
• makes the learning memorable - and fun!

We supply to a wide range of organisations which include:

• public sector organisations (including local authorities, NHS Trusts, police forces and fire services)
• private sector organisations 
• Business Schools and Universities (often where they offer MBA programs) and
• national and independent training consultancies across the UK and worldwide.

In short anyone who designs or runs training courses and would like an interactive element in their training courses.
