Competitions let you challenge your friends to see who can earn the most points over a specific period of time accomplishing activities you normally do within your academy. Points are earned by completing training, sharing knowledge, and otherwise participating in your training tasks. At the end of each competitions, badges are given out, and the gloating can commence.
Starting a Competition
When enabled in your academy, you be able to see the Compete with team option within Activity Rings (Social Workspace > Game Center > Activity Rings).
After selecting the button, a modal will appear, allowing the you to configure the competition.
The title, by default, will reflect the date of the competition, but can be edited if desired.
You can then choose up to four additional team members by searching for their names and selecting them from the list that appears.
A competition can be up to four weeks long. When ready, start the competition.
Those who have been invited will receive a notification that they've been invited, and can accept or decline the offer under Active competitions.
Competing
Competitions will commence, and points will start to accrue, from the start date of the competition. If an individual, for example, accepts a week into a four week competition, the points they've earned within that week will still be counted. If all decline, the competition will be canceled.
The host will then be able to track invites under active competitions.
All participants can also track progress of their active competitions there, and view more details if desired.
Badges
After Competitions have completed, participants will be awarded badges, based on their accomplishments and the badges characteristics.
