In this full-day, hands-on workshop you’ll learn how to turn Business Central training content into a playable “escape room” experience using the BCTalent.EscapeRoom framework. The first part of the day focuses on understanding how the framework works—what venues, rooms, tasks, hints, validation, and scoring mean in practice—and how these pieces fit together to create a smooth participant journey that feels like a game but still teaches real Business Central concepts.
In the second part of the day you’ll shift from learning the framework to creating with it. You’ll design your own escape room concept (theme, learning goal, and challenge flow) and then build rooms and tasks based on your own ideas. You’ll implement clear, testable task goals, add hints and solutions that support facilitation, and apply validation patterns so progress can be checked automatically and consistently. Along the way, you’ll get guidance on pacing, difficulty, and making challenges “fair” (so success depends on learning, not guessing), plus practical tips for packaging and reusing your content for future workshops or events.
If you don’t have your own idea yet, no problem—I’ll provide a complete, ready-to-build escape room concept with a clear story, objectives, and a set of tasks you can implement step-by-step, so you can focus on learning the framework and shipping a working room by the end of the day.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a working escape room prototype, a set of repeatable design patterns for creating additional rooms and tasks, and the confidence to run or extend gamified learning experiences in Business Central with measurable progress and outcomes.
