The myGTEApp served the purpose of an managing contacts, processes and timing, wtih a view to the hygiene concept. It also supported learning, with digital training touchpoints designed to playfully convey complex product content with gamification elements. The hands-on training for the participants was by means of a wide variety of digital tasks and directly on their own mobile device. The possiblity of gathering points in the GTE challenge provided additional impetus.
