Streamline compliance: Transitioning from face-to-face to MicroLearns in modern training

In a dynamic world where innovation is the norm, the realm of corporate training and compliance is no exception.

The traditional approach of face-to-face training, once hailed as the gold standard, is now facing its own evolution. Learning and Development (L&D) teams, compliance officers, and legal departments are navigating the shifting tides, recognising the limitations of conventional methods.

From its towering costs to the formidable challenge of scheduling and execution, face-to-face training is fast becoming an impractical choice for organizations striving to maximize learning efficiency.

Enter the era of digital learning, with Microlearning leading the charge in revolutionising the way we learn.

The pitfalls of face-to-face training

From soaring costs to logistical nightmares, organisations are recognising the limitations of this traditional approach.

Breaking the budget barrier

Face-to-face training often demands significant financial investments, encompassing venue rentals, printed materials, and travel expenses.

These costs can strain budgets, especially for organisations with large workforces.

Employees today have packed schedules, juggling work, personal lives, and continuous learning.

The rigid structure of traditional training – from face-to-face, paper based and boring online modules – can disrupt their workflow and create productivity bottlenecks.

Moreover, the expenses associated with hiring trainers, booking venues, and printing materials can quickly escalate, straining an organisation’s budget.

Time liberation

Scheduling face-to-face training sessions for employees can be a logistical nightmare, requiring meticulous planning and coordination. This approach disrupts regular work routines, leading to potential productivity losses.
