Kalina and her team recognized the challenges faced by companies when it comes to training employees effectively and engagingly. Unlike traditional methods that rely on lengthy presentations or documentation, Coach Microlearning takes a different approach. The platform leverages the power of microlearning, presenting information through content-based learning games.
The beauty of Coach Microlearning lies in its simplicity and personalization. Employees utilize a mobile app that prompts them with questions based on their specific learning needs. They earn points for correct answers and receive immediate feedback on incorrect responses. This gamified approach not only increases engagement but also allows employees to learn at their own pace.
The platform goes a step further by leveraging advanced technology to detect knowledge gaps and deliver targeted learning materials to fill those gaps. It’s a personalized learning experience without the need for L&D professionals to manually create learning paths.
The impact of Coach Microlearning extends beyond mere knowledge acquisition. The platform is designed to enhance employee performance and contribute to key business outcomes. Whether it’s boosting sales, reducing workplace accidents, or improving overall productivity, Coach Microlearning aligns training with organizational goals.
