Why Attend Step Away?

Step Away is a safe space to explore the creative development process. Attendees learn about how creative artifacts like games and comics are created. Research tells us this creative process can be applied to problem-solving efforts to create innovative learning within an organization.

If you are mandated to create training based on games or visual design, you will learn the process first-hand. You’ll be given opportunities to explore visual design principles and learn how to apply your visual design skills. This will help you with scoping and pricing a creative solution such as a game for learning or visual narrative storytelling.

Step Away is the opportunity to work with others who have similar interests. You’ll exchange ideas and have deep conversations while sharing and learning together in a relaxed and immersive atmosphere. As an adult, we have few opportunities to get away and really think through problems. This is the opportunity for you to do just that by separating yourself from the noise and digital distractions of daily work life.

Step Away was founded by industry leaders who are relevant, focused and in-line with industry thinking. They will be by your shoulder every step, coaching, and guiding. This means that the ideas and tips can be employed within your organization and can add value to training and development quickly.
