In order to keep pace with an ever-changing marketplace, managers at this apparel firm needed to track and monitor their employees’ knowledge. They did this by using microlearning at RapL. Microlearning is a method of delivering small pieces of information or training in a way that is easily digestible for the learner. This allowed the managers to quickly identify any knowledge gaps that their employees had and then take corrective action. As a result, the employees were able to stay up-to-date with the latest changes in the marketplace and keep the company competitive.
