Gaming Campaign and Gamification
ICF’s modeling, simulation, and gaming team has helped both government and industry maximize the use of gaming technology for their Web 2.0 presence, learning, and training strategies for the 21st century. Our team of experts has used games to tackle difficult issues such as risky AIDS behavior change and helping children to understand the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling consumption activities for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). ICF uses a proven tailored approach to honing our client’s interests into a thoughtful, engaging, and measurable plan for building gaming and gamification into our client’s content and strategy.
