  • A Microlearning Course is a self-paced digital course aimed at helping learners upskill and develop knowledge in a specific topic.

    The course is delivered in bite-sized sessions (no more than 10-15 mins) on a mobile app and is highly interactive, leading learners to think, reflect, practice and share their learnings in a global peer learning community. This course format is scientifically proven to increase knowledge retention rates in adult learners.

    Gnowbe’s MLCs are designed for on-the-go learning on mobile devices, both online and offline. You can also access the course contents on computers on our web-based platform.

  • Gnowbe is excited to launch the world’s first subscription-based microlearning library which has been endorsed by the Singapore Government. You can enjoy unlimited access to more than 300 microlearning courses geared towards career and professional development anytime, anywhere. Courses are thoughtfully designed by world-renowned experts such as KPMG and Mercer to amplify your learning journey through practical application. You can earn your certification with just 10 minutes a day and instantly share your achievement on LinkedIn.

  • Anyone who is looking to upskill, reskill or acquire must-have knowledge and skills to boost employability, job performance and/or personal capabilities.

    Lifelong learning can take place at any age and at any career stage. Hence, every MLC is tailored to one’s learning abilities from beginner, intermediate to advanced levels. This information can be found under Course Description.

  • The world is changing at lightning speed. The Organisation For Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) estimates that 14% of existing jobs could disappear as a result of automation in the next 15 years. To thrive in the 21st-century workplace, everyone has to embrace lifelong learning to stay relevant.

    Gnowbe integrates text, quizzes, reflections and Instagram-like interaction features to amplify your learning journey. This approach has shown a tenfold increase in learning effectiveness compared to Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) and has been scientifically proven to improve retention of must-have knowledge and skills.
