BOOST-IT is een native app, die de meest uiteenlopende functionaliteiten biedt om verandertrajecten bij organisaties spelenderwijs mee te faciliteren. De app is op maat in te richten en kan daardoor voor uiteenlopende leer-en ontwikkeltrajecten worden ingezet. De app is een aansprekend en laagdrempelig instrument om kleine en grote groepen cursisten, deelnemers of medewerkers actief en direct bij de eigen ontwikkeling of die van de organisatie betrokken te houden. Aan de hand van stellingen, quiz- en enquêtevragen, messaging en periodieke updates wordt de noodzakelijke informatie op aantrekkelijke wijze aangeboden. Gamification, in de vorm van puzzeltochten met QR-codes, puntenscores en leaderboards, zorgt voor inzicht in de prestaties per afdeling of organisatie en vergroot de betrokkenheid van gebruikers.
