In *Two Point Museum*, every staff member, from Experts and Assistants to Janitors and Security Guards, plays an essential role in keeping the museum running smoothly. As staff members gain experience points (XP), they unlock new skills and become more efficient at their jobs. Here's how you can level up your staff's XP quickly and effectively.
How To Get Staff XP Fast in Two Point Museum
When staff members embark on Expeditions, certain events (both positive and negative) are only accessible once they've reached the necessary rank. Excluding staff from these trips could mean missing out on valuable exhibit upgrades or even putting the expedition team at risk.
While a staff member's rank doesn't directly affect their daily performance, it's crucial for unlocking qualification slots that enhance your museum's daily operations. Leveling up staff can be a slow process, especially when managing your museum, but there are effective strategies to maximize their XP without compromising your operations.
1. Staff Assignments

Each staff member has a specialty, particularly if they come with a qualification upon hiring. While staff continuously earn XP, albeit slowly, placing them in roles that match their skills ensures they build experience while contributing effectively.
For instance, if an Expert has the Eloquent trait, assigning them to lead tours not only boosts their XP but also enhances visitor engagement and knowledge. Similarly, Assistants should be placed in areas that align with their traits and talents. If an assistant excels in customer service, they should be on the museum floor interacting with guests, rather than tucked away in a marketing office.
2. Train Staff Regularly

Training directly improves staff effectiveness, even though they're temporarily off the museum floor. While training doesn't earn XP in *Two Point Museum*, it opens up new skill acquisition and improvement opportunities, paving the way for future XP gains. Building a training room and scheduling regular training sessions ensures your staff can learn new skills or enhance existing ones, leading to a more efficient workforce over time.
Selecting a qualification during training that aligns with their job responsibilities will help them earn XP more quickly once they're back on the job.

3. Expeditions

Although expeditions take staff away from the museum, they're a valuable opportunity to gain XP and level up. This is particularly true when visiting areas of the map that offer higher XP rewards for specific staff members.
The cargo item "XP-dition Journal" boosts expedition XP by 15% and should be a staple in your expedition preparations. If another item isn't critical, consider including the journal to maximize XP gains.
4. Keep Your Staff Happy

A happy staff member is a productive one. Unhappy, tired, or overworked employees are more likely to take breaks or resign. Ensure you have an adequate number of staff so that no one is overworked, but not so many that they're idle. Remember that training increases salary expectations, so keep a close eye on your finances.
By following these strategies, you can quickly boost your staff's XP and enhance your museum's performance. For more tips and guides, be sure to explore our other resources.
