Microlearning is an easy way to learn information in small blocks. This can either be directly, or over time - with the cards being available at set times.
Find Public Micro-Courses
If Microlearning is enabled in your Academy, as a learner, you might be assigned to a micro-course, or you might want to enroll in one that is open to everyone. Public micro-courses are found in your Catalog.
Navigation: UKG Learning > Learner Workspace > Training > Catalog
In the left navigation, make sure you are in the Learner Workspace.
When in the Learner Workspace, select Training and then Catalog. This gives you an overview of all available training that you can enroll in.
All available Micro-courses you are not enrolled in can be found here under the Microlearning tab.
Take a Microlearning Course
Your current micro-courses, whether you self-enrolled or had them assigned to you, are found under My Training.
Navigation: UKG Learning > Learner Workspace > Training > My Training
When you are in the Learner Workspace, click on Training and then select My Training.
- In the Training in Progress stream, you can see your active micro-courses.
- If you have a lot of trainings in progress, you can go to the In Progress tab and filter on Microlearning to only see the micro-courses you are currently enrolled in.
- Going to the Quick View will tell you how many cards are in the deck, how many skills it is connected to, and when the cards go live. In this current example, there are only four cards in the deck, with two being made available each day - meaning you can finish this micro-course in two days.
- Select Launch Microlearning to open the course.
There are four kinds of Microlearning cards: Text, images, questions, and stacks. Text and images are for you to study, questions need to be answered, and stacks are like flashcards that have text/image combined with a question. - You can flip through the cards using the arrows. To answer a question, click on the answer you think is correct. It will immediately give you feedback.
Stack questions will show in a different color. If you get an answer wrong, you can guess again.
Cards that are unavailable at the moment will show you a timer and let you know when they go live.
When a new card is made available, you receive an email. Click on the link in the email to go to your next card.
If the micro-course is connected to any skills, you can progress towards these skills after completion.
