I was introduced recently to a new buzz word making its way across the learning & development industry: Micro-learning.

If you’re like me, you’re probably starting to get a bit tired of people adding their particular spin to learning – all in search of the holy grail that is the “right way” to make learning happen.

It doesn’t exist.

But having got that out of the way, it is worth looking at these ideas to see if there’s anything we, as learning professionals, can learn from them.
