the EMPLOYEE app Launches Microlearning Platform to Support Ongoing Training and Development for Frontline Employees

theEMPLOYEEapp, a leader in mobile communications applications for corporate communicators and HR leaders, has launched a new Microlearning Platform. The addition of the Microlearning Platform underscores theEMPLOYEEapp’s commitment to innovating modern, convenient ways for communicators to reach employees wherever they are with vital information to help them succeed at their jobs.

Microlearning is an educational strategy that breaks down concepts into short (three to five minute) segments. Studies show that companies that invest in training and development programs see a 24 percent higher profit margin, and 70 percent of employees say that training and development programs influence their decision to stay with a company. However, in-house production of these materials can be costly and time-consuming.

“Microlearning is a great way for employers to share bite-sized information and training with all employees,” said Clare Epstein, GM at theEMPLOYEEapp. “Today’s frontline workers want more learning and development resources from their employers. theEMPLOYEEapp is making it easier and more affordable to educate and engage deskless employees and provide refresher training on important topics.”
