HR and learning and development (L&D) departments use micro learning platforms as corporate learning solutions. Short bursts of targeted instructional information that fit into a daily workflow and are accessible on any device are provided by these training solutions to employees. Companies may either produce their own material or use a pre-existing library of learning materials that contains a combination of video, animation, and text.

Micro learning platforms are not the same as corporate learning management systems (LMS) or learning experience platform (LEP) software. The challenges that LEPs and micro learning platforms assist organizations tackle, as well as their target consumers, differ. Employee-driven, computer- or desk-based instructional content is frequently provided by LEPs.

Micro learning systems, on the other hand, are designed to fit into the workflow of desk-based or desk less employees in order to assist them enhance specific role-based knowledge. Meanwhile, corporate learning management systems (LMS) are responsible for administering, managing, and reporting on corporate training, which is frequently done for compliance reasons. Micro learning platforms work with corporate LMS software to improve the learning experience for employees.
