Is Microtraining for Safety in Your Toolbox?

Is Microtraining for Safety in Your Toolbox?

Aug. 12, 2025
EHS Today wants to know if readers are adopting this method of training.

Microtraining, which is not new, has yet to become one of the standard ways of learning. Using short, focused content, usually in digital format, it provides concise and easy-to-digest information. 

"Microtraining keeps each lesson lean: one concept, one clear objective, one tiny “chunk” to process in under five minutes. The result is a focused learning experience that burns new synaptic pathways—learning that sticks!" according to Rick Tobin, president and  CEO of Bongarde Media, in an article on EHS entitled, Reinforcing Safety Culture through Ongoing Microtraining. 

Tobin points out that this method can reduce recordable incidents, as it did for Parker Hannifin

So EHS Today wants to know if this method is being used by its readers.
