Abstract:The author conducted a systematic literature review to emphasize the researched topic’s current trends and related historical development of the key terms. To address the determined research gap, a quantitative approach was employed. The author primarily used a questionnaire survey to gather viewpoints from training participants. This study explores the integration of the microlearning trend into employee learning and development processes. It aims to better understand the attitudes towards microlearning utilization of the current training participants. Furthermore, it seeks to determine the practical pillars associated with microlearning adoption within organizations. The research confirmed that training participants have diverse associations with microlearning, which current businesses can leverage to structure succeeding learning content. These associational benefits can support current businesses with a microlearning formation and a better understanding of relevant implementation prerequisites. This study explores a rarely covered topic, that is addressing a research gap within the European context. The exploration of microlearning significance, its related aspects, and learners’ feedback offer valuable understandings, that provides a number of outcomes to contribute to theoretical and empirical wisdom of this research.
