WHAT IS MICROLEARNING?
Microlearning gives your employees learning content in a ‘snack’ format. Mobile first: people follow training on a smartphone or tablet in a place and at a time that works for them. Using gameplay techniques, you enrich and motivate users. Situations in which you can use microlearning include onboarding new employees, introducing new products, processes, procedures and software systems or refreshing or teaching skills. The learning content is digital and varied and includes video tutorials and podcasts, infographics and downloadable content.
BENEFITS OF MICROLEARNING
You chop up the learning into small slices of wisdom that are easy to understand and retain. Short, bite-sized training content improves the retention of knowledge by 50%. Microlearning improves employees’ willingness to learn and engage. Five minutes of learning each day are sufficient. Learning content is available whenever people need it, so newcomers are more quickly deployable within your business. The icing on the cake – as a manager, you get a comprehensive set of tools to monitor trainees’ progress in real-time.

What are your first steps?
Microlearning makes learning fun, challenging and efficient. The microlearning platform provides the foundation but is certainly not a guarantee of success – thorough preparation remains essential.
- Determine the purpose of the course and the target audience it’s intended for. Think about the trainee’s learning journey.
- Collect learning content and plot out the learning pathway. Pay proper attention to its launch and communication.
- Evaluate engagement and adjust the microlearning if it needs it.
