About Learning Snippets

Learning Snippets are designed to encourage real behaviour change. Each Snippet is built on a foundation of recent, proven science about the models, conditions and processes that make that change possible.

Each Snippet models a real-life scenario – this allows users to practice complex skills in a safe environment where they can learn, make mistakes and get instant feedback. This mental rehearsal is essential to developing new skills that can be utilized immediately.

The team behind Learning Snippets includes leading scientists in social psychology and neuroscience, E-learning specialists, and award-winning designers.

What Makes Learning Snippets Different?

LASTING

Spaced microlearning has been shown to be far more effective and long-lasting than traditional in-person or online learning programs. Consequential reasoning and critical thinking are core to each scenario response, making the learning meaningful.

EFFECTIVE

Learning Snippets are designed to encourage real behaviour change. Each snippet is built on a foundation of recent, proven science about the models, conditions and processes that make that change possible.

SNACK-SIZED

Each scenario-based lesson can be completed in 5 minutes or less. Learners are motivated by the short time commitment, and don’t get overwhelmed or bored by traditional lengthy E-learning modules.

FLEXIBLE

Learners can use a laptop, tablet, or smartphone to complete lessons on their own schedule, so they don’t have to sacrifice valuable working hours to complete a course.

CREATES ACTION

“It actually demystified the optimal manner of dealing with some uncomfortable situations, and actually proposed really manageable approaches.”

EMPOWERING

“It definitely made me think about how an individual can actually help push a little bit of a shift in diversity and inclusion within my organization.”

“I felt like it empowered me.”

EASY TO USE

“I liked the fact that they were snippets. I think that’s amazing.”

“That would allow them to do it on their phones, because they’re very, very busy”
