Most brands already know the first interaction on their learning management system is important. But the second one? It’s transformational.
The return visit is the moment a learner decides to come back to engage again. That’s a signal that your content, your brand, and your experience resonated. But here’s the catch: if you’re not closing the loop with feedback, you’re missing the most valuable metric of all.
Feedback Fuels Growth
When learners share what worked, what didn’t, and what they need next, they’re giving you the blueprint for continuous improvement. And when you act on that feedback? You’re telling your front-line sales associates that you value them.
That kind of connection energizes people. It turns passive participants into active advocates.
The Danger of Transactional Training
Too often, training is treated as a one-and-done event. A box to check. A metric to report. But when we focus only on completions or content launches, we miss the deeper story. Engagement isn’t about how many modules someone finishes — it’s about whether they come back, whether they apply what they’ve learned, and whether they feel invested in the journey.
Without feedback, training becomes transactional. And transactional training doesn’t build loyalty, advocacy, or performance.
Closing the Loop
So how do we make the return visit count? Here are a few ways to do it:
- Ask for Feedback: Don’t wait until the end of a course. Embed feedback moments throughout the experience.
- Respond Visibly: Let learners know how their input shaped future content, updates, or incentives.
- Gamify the Loop: Use recognition, progress tracking, and rewards to make feedback part of the journey.
- Create Space for Conversation: Build community features into your LMS where RSAs can share insights, tips, and reactions with each other.
Make Every Interaction Count
The return visit is your opportunity to deepen the relationship. To show learners they matter. To turn training into transformation.
So ask yourself: Are you closing the loop? Are you listening, responding, and evolving with your learners?
