In this webinar, we'll discuss microlearning, give some examples of how you can use it for safety training, and introduce the new microlearning/safety training course release from Vector Solutions.
We'll cover:
- How to increase comprehension and retention during safety training to support performance on the job
- Benefits and uses of microlearning in safety training
- How microlearning can be used as part of a spaced-practice (or spaced-learning) program to strengthen neural connections within the learner's brain on a specific topic
- How to build more robust mental models (or schemas)
- And much more
