What are Leaderboards?
The leaderboard function in Flow Learning is designed to foster a motivating and engaging learning environment by enabling learners to compete with their peers. This feature not only drives motivation but also allows managers to track performance and engagement effectively. By integrating leaderboards into learning collections, training managers can make them easily accessible to teams via their Mapal One accounts.

Customisable Challenges: Challenges can be tailored to specific training goals, with options to create company-level challenges or select from existing ones. Customisation includes setting names, active dates, and assigning them to specific brands or departments.
Recognition and Rewards: Leaderboards highlight top performers, offering opportunities for recognition and rewards. This acknowledgment can be a powerful motivator, encouraging learners to aim for excellence.
Goal Setting and Achievement: Leaderboards help set clear goals and track progress, driving learners to complete training modules on time and achieve higher scores. This clarity enhances the learning experience and fosters a positive attitude towards ongoing training.
Why Use Leaderboards?
