Incorporating Fun into Serious Training

How beneficial is it to incorporate fun into serious training? I would appreciate some suggestions on incorporating fun into training.

Thanks in advance,

Thank you for including the fun element in training. For sure, one must practice tested tools and methods. As someone from ITjobzone rightly said, we shouldn't be going off track, and programs have to be designed this way. A good certification would definitely help with all of this.

Kind regards,

Dear Kavita,

Humor or wit has the following merits:

1. Creates interest
2. Grabs attention
3. Aids in memory retention

However, it also comes with its own set of challenges:

1. Avoid using irrelevant humor
2. Do not over-explain humor (it can lead to an anti-climactic effect)
3. Not everyone appreciates humor
4. Speakers should refrain from excessive laughter

My teaching philosophy is "EDUTAINMENT."
