An advent calendar opened the door to new ways to train and learn

Securitas tested Wittario with a digital advent calendar for around 3,000 employees. The experience led to a licence for further use in training, security exercises, microlearning and internal communication.

We first tried Wittario’s advent calendar in December and quickly saw that we could use the platform for many other purposes, both with employees and in Securitasskolen. We now look forward to testing new applications.

Why

Securitas Norge

chose Wittario

Combined learning and competition

Let employees take part without registering an account

Engaged employees with short digital activities before Christmas

Provided a flexible platform for courses, training and communication

Opened up practical tasks for Securitasskolen

Background and challenge

Securitas Norge has around 3,000 employees in different roles, workplaces and working routines. In a large, dispersed organisation, it can be hard to create activities that reach widely and still engage people.

The company initially wanted a ready-made advent calendar that could be offered to all employees throughout December. It needed to be easy to open, take little time and offer a new task each day.

How

Securitas Norge

solved the challenge

Securitas started with a ready-made digital advent calendar: a Wittario activity that did not require participants to visit physical locations, with a new, tailored task every day in December. Employees could participate without creating an account.

✓
The advent calendar was offered to employees across different workplaces. Short activities and competition gave them a reason to return day after day throughout December.
✓
Participation required no separate user registration. Gift cards were linked to completion so the most engaged participants could be rewarded.
✓
After the test, Securitas bought a Wittario licence. This allows the company to develop and distribute its own activities throughout the year, tailored to different audiences and purposes.
✓
Securitas wants to explore courses, practical exercises in training, microlearning, competitions and internal communication.

From challenge to solution

Wittario delivered the calendar as a digital activity that did not require visits to physical locations. Employees could complete it without registering an account and received access to a new, tailored activity every day in December.

The calendar combined short tasks with competition. The format could reach employees across workplaces, build anticipation and repeat engagement, and link gift cards to participation.

After the calendar, Securitas saw opportunities to use Wittario for more purposes throughout the year. The company moved from a single delivery to a licence.

Why does this work?

A digital calendar with short daily tasks made it easy to share new content throughout December. Employees could take part without registering, wherever they worked.

Competition and the chance to receive a gift card gave an extra reason to participate. The first delivery gave Securitas experience with the format before it considered further uses.

Securitas saw that the platform could support both formal training and shorter activities in the working day. Practical scenarios and reflection are possible applications it wants to test.
