Only need to get the ‘high level / jist’ of it?

Let your audience sink their teeth into it with our bite-sized microlearning.

Microlearning eLearning Services

TechPodge Microlearning Design & Development is a service that creates short, focused, and highly targeted learning modules designed to deliver bite-sized knowledge or skills that cover the essential ‘details’ your people need to know - all just-in-time.

If you’re pressed for time, these learning nuggets may be the best solution to meet your needs. These modules are typically 2–5 minutes long, optimized for mobile access, and tailored to meet specific learning outcomes quickly and effectively.

Considering a Microlearning approach? Consider these key questions.

  • It depends on the learning challenge in question. One or two might be enough but that is rarely the case. It’s best to take an approach where a series of Microlearning modules are created. This way you can more thoroughly cover a given subject and break it out so it is practical to learn on the job!

  • This follows the last question - yes, indeed you can and we believe this is a highly effective way to get the most out of a micro learning ‘approach’.

    Rather than one nugget of short high impact learning, why not string several together to keep up the momentum and methodically build users knowledge to maximize this approach? 

    Users can start and stop as they wish, retaining ‘practical’ and ‘essential’ bits of knowledge as they progress!

    Bear in mind, that it’s best to plan this out - that way we don’t lose the plot!

  • A bit of both ‘yes’ and ‘no’.

    It’s text heavy material you’ve got, right? So, not all of the text would need to be used in ‘one’ micro-learning module.

    Rather, we would work with you to ‘chunk’ the material down to size to break it out appropriately into bit sizes content. This helps to focus on the essential knowledge or skill you want to build. There’s a bit of art involved and that’s why we have a process in place. See ‘Our Approach’.

  • Yes! We rely on their contribution and strongly encourage their input at each stage in the development of a Microlearning asset.

What are the benefits of Microlearning?

Short and focused

Micro learning is ultra focused and short - only covering the essential knowledge users need.

Just in time

It’s a question of time - users can get what they need to know just when they need it on the job.

Customizable

TechPodge and design and build Microlearning for your most specific needs and per your preferences - see some examples below.

Practical

Microlearning is an extremely practical way to learn. The learner gets just the right amount of information they need at the point of need. Learners tend to consume more learning this way since it is easy, effective and fast.

What kind of Microlearning can TechPodge do?

Here are some applications:

🎥 Short Instructional Videos

  • 2–5 minute clips teaching a single concept or skill (e.g., “How to deliver feedback effectively”).

🎮 Interactive Scenario-Based Exercises

  • Quick decision-making simulations or branching scenarios (e.g., handling a difficult customer).

🧾 Infographics & Visual Summaries

  • One-page visual overviews of policies, processes, or key steps (e.g., “The 5 Steps of Safe Lifting”).

❓ Quick Quizzes or Knowledge Checks

  • Bite-sized assessments that reinforce key concepts or serve as refreshers.

🧰 Job Aids & Cheat Sheets

  • Downloadable tools offering step-by-step instructions (e.g., CRM data entry guide).

🎧 Micro-Podcasts or Audio Nuggets

  • 2–3 minute audio briefings learners can listen to on-the-go (e.g., leadership tips).

📩 Daily Learning Nudges or Tips

  • Bite-sized insights delivered via email, mobile apps, or internal platforms (e.g., security tips of the day).

🃏 Flashcards or Drip Learning Cards

  • Repetition-based micro-content to reinforce learning (e.g., product feature recall).

📱 Mobile-Based Microlearning Modules

  • Interactive, swipe-based learning tailored for phones, with minimal text and quick actions.

✨ Animated Explainers or Motion Graphics

  • Short animations that illustrate processes or explain abstract ideas quickly.
