The Microlearning Advantage for OJT
Traditional OJT relies on shadowing or dense manuals—methods that are inconsistent and
slow. Microlearning snippets, by contrast, are fast, targeted, and always available.
1. True Just-in-Time (JIT) Access
The core of modern OJT is Just-in-Time (JIT) learning. Knowledge must be integrated
directly into the workflow.
Mobile-First Delivery: The essential tool is the Microlearning Application. It must be
intuitive and mobile-optimized, allowing a Retail manager to pull up a 60-second video on a
new refund protocol right at the checkout, or a Banking teller to verify a compliance step
instantly.
Performance Support: This capability turns the Microlearning Platform into an instant
Microlearning Tool, enabling self-correction and accurate execution right when the task is
being performed.
2. Singular Focus for Instant Competence
Microlearning maximizes OJT efficiency by committing to the "One Goal, One Module" rule.
Actionable Content: Every Microlearning Course addresses a single, high-priority action.
For a field technician, the snippet isn't "Equipment Maintenance," but "The two steps for
safely isolating power on Pump X." For Pharma, it’s a quick visual guide to "Verifying the
seal integrity on the packaging line." This precision minimizes cognitive load and accelerates
skill mastery.
Scaling OJT with Intelligence and Retention
For global organizations in Insurance or Finance, scaling quality OJT requires smart
technology.
AI-Driven Agility: MaxLearn uses an AI-powered Authoring Tool and Microlearning Authoring
Tools to rapidly create and update focused content from complex regulatory documents. This
ensures all OJT materials remain accurate and current.
Personalized Support: The AI-Powered Learning Platform monitors employee performance
and uses that data to automatically assign targeted, corrective Microlearning Software to
fill specific knowledge gaps during OJT.
Sustained Retention: The Microlearning LMS automatically manages spaced repetition,
ensuring that critical safety protocols or complex procedures are reinforced and retained
long after the initial training, reducing long-term risk.
