In *Two Point Museum*, every staff member, from experts and assistants to janitors and security guards, plays a crucial role in the smooth operation of your museum. As staff gain experience (XP), they unlock better skills and become more efficient at their jobs. Here’s how to level up your staff's XP quickly and effectively:
How To Get Staff XP Fast in Two Point Museum
When staff embark on expeditions, certain events (both beneficial and challenging) are only triggered once they've achieved the necessary rank. Excluding staff from these trips could mean missing out on valuable exhibit enhancements like “+1 Quality” or even risking the safety of the expedition party.
While a staff member's rank does not directly affect their day-to-day abilities, it does offer significant advantages beyond their routine tasks. Leveling up unlocks qualification slots, which directly impact the museum's daily operations.
Leveling up staff can sometimes feel slow, especially when you're managing an entire museum. However, there are several effective strategies to maximize your staff's experience gain without compromising your museum's operations.
1. Staff Assignments

Each staff member has a specialty, particularly if they come with a qualification when hired. They continuously build experience, albeit slowly. By keeping staff in roles that match their skills, you ensure they're gaining XP while making the most of their abilities.
For instance, if an Expert has the Eloquent trait, assigning them to lead tours will not only help them build XP but also enhance visitor engagement and knowledge, creating a beneficial situation for both.
Assistants should be placed in roles that align with their strengths. If an assistant excels in customer service, it’s counterproductive to assign them to a secluded marketing office. Instead, position them on the museum floor where they can interact with guests and utilize their skills effectively.
2. Train Staff Regularly

Training directly boosts staff effectiveness, even though they won’t earn XP during the training itself in *Two Point Museum*. However, the skills they acquire through training pave the way for future XP gains. Building a training room and scheduling regular training sessions ensures your staff learn new skills or refine existing ones, leading to a more efficient workforce over time.
Choosing a qualification during training that aligns with their job responsibilities will help them increase their XP more quickly once they return to work.

3. Expeditions

Although expeditions mean staff are temporarily away from the museum, they are an excellent way to gain XP and level up. This is particularly effective when visiting areas of the map that offer higher XP rewards for certain staff members.
The cargo item “XP-dition Journal” boosts expedition XP by 15% and should be a priority when sending staff on journeys. If no other item is essential, consider including the journal.
4. Keep Your Staff Happy

A happy employee is a productive one. If your staff are unhappy, tired, or overworked, they may want to quit or take more breaks. Ensure you have the right number of staff so they aren’t overworked, but also avoid having too many idle employees. Remember, training increases salary expectations, so keep an eye on your finances!
These strategies will help you quickly gain XP and level up your staff, enhancing your museum's overall performance. For more tips and guides, be sure to explore our other resources!
