Learning via Whatsapp – fad or fact?

Accessible and flexible learning solutions make more sense, ensuring that your workforce learn at their own pace, language and place. But does it really result in increased knowledge and change in behaviour?

According to a study at Dresden University, microlearning learning can improve information retention by 22% more than standard learning approaches. A recent asssement by Deloitte’s demonstrates that employees have only 4.8 minutes per day for learning and development further highlighting the need for byte-sized learning in the workplace.

The traditional office learning model with travelling constraints is not compatible with the demands of disconnected communities or the deskless workforce. People have limited access to the Internet, making it challenging to allocate large chunks of time for learning. This is where accessible and flexible learning solutions make more sense, ensuring that your workforce learn at their own pace and on their own terms. 

We are at the forefront of providing innovative learning solutions, accessible and affordable to all.
