You've arrived at Forget Me Not®'s specialised site for the aged care industry. Our microlearning solutions simplify compliance, improve knowledge retention, and support providers in delivering exceptional outcomes with confidence.
Stop throwing money down the well... Training needs to tick the compliance boxes—there’s no question about that. But it should also give your organisation a competitive edge, driving care quality, workforce engagement, and setting a new standard in the aged care sector. Real growth happens when you invest in training that works. Make every training dollar count—because thriving organisations start with engaged employees.
Imagine throwing thousands of dollars into a well and walking away—wasted resources with nothing to show for it. That’s exactly what uninspired training costs organisations every year. Now, imagine those resources creating empowered employees, a skilled workforce equipped with confidence, and measurable improvements in care delivery. That’s the potential of microlearning.
In today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving workplace, traditional methods, such as lengthy eLearning sessions, simply don’t resonate with today’s workforce. Employees are seeking accessible, practical solutions that respect their time and integrate seamlessly. For care workers balancing demanding care responsibilities, training must be short, relevant, and impactful, designed to fit into their day without overwhelming them. Microlearning, with its concise and targeted approach, has become the clear preference, meeting the modern demand for flexibility and relevance.
The challenge for organisations is not whether to invest in training, but how to deliver it effectively—and microlearning has emerged as the solution.
Forward-thinking organisations are leading the charge in transforming training into something impactful and engaging. Consider Laing O'Rourke, a globally operating, privately owned construction giant, one of the largest in the UK. They have introduced ‘bite-sized’ microlearning modules inspired by the scroll-worthy appeal of platforms like Instagram andTikTok, they’ve reshaped training to fit seamlessly into the flow of work. This dynamic, digestible format addresses a long-standing issue with traditional training: information overload leading to low retention.
Consider this: In aged care having access to 5-minute bursts of training could make the difference between merely “knowing” and truly applying knowledge on the job.
In a recent survey of Carers, over 70% expressed a clear preference for its concise and practical format. (AnglicareSA, Dementia Microlearning Employee Feedback) Even more compelling, 90% reported feeling confident applying what they had learnt to their roles, demonstrating that microlearning not only meets workforce preferences but also empowers employees to turn knowledge into actionable results.
Another Carer commented, “I really enjoyed this innovative way to learn. It was positive, encouraging, and something new to me. I would definitely be open to using this again as it helped me learn within my own time and at my own pace without pressure.”
Research into microlearning has revealed 82% of participants agreed that 'doing 5 minutes of learning a day was better than one long eLearning module.' (ACWIC Microlearning Spaced Repetition Pilot Report)
Engaging employees with learning is the foundation building block of a continuous learning culture. By embedding microlearning into the daily workflow, organisations enable their people to think critically, address challenges proactively, and deliver solutions with confidence. This creates a resilient workforce prepared to navigate today’s complexities with ease.
Imagine a care team equipped with both confidence and actionable knowledge: delivering higher quality care, building stronger relationships with residents, and ensuring consistency in applying best practices across the organisation. By equipping staff with practical skills and confidence, microlearning becomes more than just a training method—it’s a catalyst for transforming the care experience for both workers and residents.
This isn’t just an innovative approach—it’s a necessity for organisations aiming to stay competitive.
Forget Me Not® uses microlearning that leverages evidence-based techniques, such as the spacing and testing effects, to enhance knowledge retention.
One early adopter of microlearning said, “It’s a great way to reinforce information when presented with a small amount on a frequent basis. I have previously found in the education sector that training is usually undertaken in a bulk lot, all in one day (or two), and retention is questionable.”
For aged care professionals, this shift from once and done, spray and pray learning to spaced repetition means critical knowledge—like dementia care strategies or infection control protocols—sticks and translates into better outcomes for residents.
Combined with user personalisation, microlearning and spaced repetition deliver knowledge retention without disrupting workflows. When organisations embrace this approach, training transforms from a compliance checkbox exercise into a driver of success, embedding critical skills, improving performance, and creating more confident teams and smoother operations.
At Forget Me Not®, we’ve seen the impact of this learning evolution firsthand. Through tailored microlearning solutions, we’ve helped organisations embed critical knowledge into workflows, meet compliance standards, and drive measurable outcomes.
A manager who recently rolled out dementia care microlearning using Forget Me Not® at her residential aged care home shared,“Forget Me Not® delivered the most significant improvement in dementia care skills and knowledge for my team—far surpassing all other training we’ve used. Forget Me Not® training is not just better, but significantly better!”
