The global microlearning market is projected to reach USD 2.55 billion in 2024 and USD 4.71 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 13% during the forecast period.
Microlearning is the process of dividing employee training into small pieces. The goal is to increase short courses that are easy to learn and quickly applied to employees. It provides additional advantages like smart device access, just-in-time learning, actionable data, etc. Microlearning is used in various industries to support a multitude of training applications. This training is best used when a student needs the information or is most receptive to receiving the information.
The high demand for training by the high volume of workers in different companies in various industries also acts as a growth driver. A profitable learning method that increases the preference levels of companies to participate in this training method should improve the adoption rate of this method.
Microlearning in the manufacturing industry and logistics focuses on increasing efficiency, improving quality, and complying with safety policies. Qualified technicians can significantly improve the efficiency of manufacturing and logistics activities and the quality of the final product. By leveraging microlearning, employees can study content while staying on the job site, increasing the business's overall productivity. Technicians, factory workers, drivers, and other staff use training courses to align themselves with machines, processes, and compliance quickly.
The on-premise implementation of the microlearning solution will be deployed on the client's server, which the user has to buy to use. It is also customizable. Configuration and maintenance are performed by the buyer's internal IT staff, who have complete control over the microlearning solution. The local microlearning solution allows companies to create, store, and provide critical data and control access to training programs. However, the share of the on-site microlearning implementations is declining due to their high initial investment and a need for long-term commitment. This kind of implementation is employed by firms that require continuous availability of a learning system to improve the results of a business activity. With the deployment of a local microlearning solution, companies have better control over the investments made to configure the infrastructure, as this reduces the total cost of the network.
Concerns about companies' lack of preference for incurring large-scale expenses to transform the content of microlearning methods are supposed to hinder market growth. This method is generally not preferred or supported for complex training modules or modules requiring a long-term training period, which impedes business growth. It is not ideal for long-term goals of improving business performance, as it is a set of different modules and training sets that only train workers for a single brief topic, which may slow down the growth of this market.
