Our organisation recently utilised the Wildgoose app and platform for two important events: the student induction program and the staff development day. This case study outlines the success of implementing Wildgoose in these contexts, highlighting its impact on engagement, orientation, and organisational benefits.
Our institution spans three large campuses, and orienting new students across these diverse locations is a logistical challenge. Additionally, ensuring that both staff and students feel connected, engaged, and supported during onboarding and development events is critical to fostering a sense of community and belonging. We required an interactive and engaging platform to support these goals and provide a memorable experience for both students and staff.
We chose the *Wildgoose* app and platform to address these challenges, specifically targeting two key areas:
1. Student Induction Program: To create an engaging and interactive orientation that would help students settle in, form friendships, and familiarise themselves with our campuses.
2. Staff Development Day: To facilitate a productive yet entertaining day for staff members, blending learning and team-building activities.
The Wildgoose platform was implemented across all three campuses, with tailored activities designed for both students and staff. The app’s intuitive design made it easy for us to set up and for participants to engage in the activities. Additionally, the Wildgoose team provided outstanding support throughout the process, ensuring a smooth rollout for both events.
The impact on our student induction program was significant. Students were engaged from the outset, participating fully in the activities provided through Wildgoose. Their enthusiasm was clear, and many expressed positive feedback. Notably, one student shared with their parent, "I have had the best day today," showcasing the lasting impression Wildgoose made on the students. The platform facilitated an enjoyable and interactive orientation, helping students feel welcomed, excited, and connected with their peers.
For the staff development day, Wildgoose provided a perfect blend of learning and entertainment. The interactive elements fostered collaboration and team spirit among staff members, while also ensuring that learning objectives were met. The platform made it easy to manage the event, and staff members appreciated the engaging format. Overall, the development day was a great success, in large part due to Wildgoose’s capabilities.
1. Seamless Orientation: Wildgoose provided an engaging, interactive solution for orienting students across multiple campuses.
2. Increased Engagement: Both students and staff were fully immersed in the activities, with positive feedback across the board.
3. User-Friendly Platform: The platform was easy to implement and intuitive for participants to use.
4. Exceptional Support: Wildgoose’s team provided outstanding assistance throughout the setup and execution process.
5. Lasting Impact: The experience created lasting positive impressions for both students and staff, enhancing their overall onboarding experience.
Wildgoose played an essential role in the success of both our student induction program and staff development day. Their platform not only simplified logistics but also made these events highly engaging and impactful. We highly recommend MAKE by Wildgoose to any organisation looking for a dynamic solution for inductions, orientations, or team development activities. Wildgoose offers an invaluable asset for creating a positive start and building a strong sense of community within any team.
