Quick Tips to Boost Staff XP in Two Point Museum

by Allison Apr 05,2025

In *Two Point Museum*, every staff member, from Experts and Assistants to Janitors and Security Guards, plays a vital role in the success of your museum. As staff members gain experience (XP), they unlock better skills and become more efficient at their jobs. Here’s how to level up staff XP quickly in *Two Point Museum*.

How To Get Staff XP Fast in Two Point Museum

When staff members embark on Expeditions, certain events, whether beneficial or challenging, are only accessible when they have reached the necessary rank. Excluding these staff members from the trip could mean missing out on valuable exhibit upgrades like “+1 Quality” or even putting the expedition party at risk.

While ranking does not directly affect a staff member’s day-to-day abilities, it does have significant value beyond routine tasks. Leveling up unlocks qualification slots, which can greatly impact your museum’s daily operations.

Leveling up staff members can seem slow and tedious, especially when you're managing an entire museum. However, there are effective strategies to maximize your staff’s experience without compromising your operations.

1. Staff Assignments

Each staff member has a specialty, particularly if they come with a qualification. Staff continuously build their experience, albeit slowly, so keeping them in roles that match their skills ensures they gain XP while contributing effectively.

For instance, if an Expert has the Eloquent trait, assigning them to lead tours will not only build their XP but also enhance visitor engagement and knowledge, creating a win-win situation.

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 it temporarily removes them from the museum floor. While training in *Two Point Museum* doesn't earn XP, it opens up opportunities for future experience gains. By establishing a training room and regularly training staff, you can help them 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 can help them earn XP more quickly once they return to work.

Although expeditions mean staff are away from the museum, they are an excellent way to gain XP and level up, especially 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 always be considered when sending staff on journeys. If no other item is directly required, using the journal is a smart choice.

4. Keep Your Staff Happy

A happy employee is a productive one. If your staff members 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 not so many that they're idle. Remember, training increases salary expectations, so keep an eye on your finances!

These are key strategies to quickly gain XP and level up your staff for a superior museum experience. Be sure to check out our other game guides!
