I'm looking for Workfront admin who have fun ideas RE: ongoing WF education. I'm trying to workshop some myself to get our creative team more jazzed about being diligent WF users, but then I thought the community might have something better. Here’s what I was throwing around: WORKFRONT POP QUIZ: First person to answer correctly wins a Starbucks gift card! Q: What’s the name of the tool that WorkFront uses for inline proofing?? A: ProofHQ (And other basic questions like this.) -or- WORKFRONT POP-UP CONTEST: Screenshot your WF browser screen- the creative team member with the FEWEST unread notifications wins a Starbucks gift card! (This was me trying to come up with a way to reward designers who actually keep up with their notifications, but then I remembered that you can click “Mark all as seen” at any given time and go down to 0, so I had to toss this idea out..) And then of course, there’s Lunch and Learns… Because everybody loves a free lunch. I realize this may not be something a lot of folks have tried, but I thought it couldn’t hurt to ask! :)

I've loved reading all these ideas. This thread inspired me to reach out to a few people here at Workfront to put something cool together for all of you. It should be ready in the next few days, and I'll post it in this thread... I hope this post builds a little anticipation! -Nate Bagley --- Workfront Community Manager - Work Smart, Work Happy Message me directly at:

These are GREAT ideas! I went to Target and stopped in the $1 aisle to get prizes. We used those during training when people would ask great questions, answer questions correctly, collaborate with their neighbor, or think of new uses for Workfront in their daily work. We are trying to reward positive behavior and the cost was minimal.

I got together with the Training department this week after reading this post and asked them if they had some questions that you all could used to test the knowledge/educate your teams. We ended up putting together the attached PDF with a bunch of Workfront questions. I hope it comes in handy! -Nate Bagley --- Workfront Community Manager - Work Smart, Work Happy Message me directly at:

These are great questions for admin or super users. Do they have list of questions for the more basic users?
