In the fast-evolving tech industry, employees must constantly sharpen their skills to face new challenges with confidence.
That’s where Microlearning comes in. This modern learning approach focuses on short-targeted content and key advantages like flexibility, engagement, retention, and cost-effectiveness, making it a valuable tool for enhancing employees’ skills and knowledge.
Why microlearning?
By 2023, a survey conducted by Bersin & Associates found that 70% of organizations already used microlearning, with expectations to increase to 90%.
Diving deeper into why microlearning is shaping the future of corporate training, we found multiple reasons, but let’s explore its biggest benefits.
- More efficient: is designed for a specific audience and covers only essential information which is useful to the learner to achieve their objectives
- Cost-effective: since most microlearning content is digital and
on-demand, companies save costs related to hiring an instructor and organizing in-person session expenses - Tailored learning experience: employees can choose the topics that matter the most to them, skipping unnecessary content
- Engaging: by using different multimedia elements, the motivation of the learners increases, transforming training into an enjoyable experience
- Flexibility: training content is available anytime, anywhere, making it ideal for busy professionals or teams that prefer to learn at their own pace
As the digital era accelerates, microlearning is more than just a trend- it’s a powerful tool for companies to upskill their teams quickly and efficiently, delivering the right knowledge at the right time.
