INTRODUCTION The Microlearning Platform is an innovative, AI-powered training solution designed to revolutionize workforce learning, particularly for blue and greycollar employees. Traditional training methods are often lengthy, inconsistent, and inaccessible to non-tech-savvy workers, leading to poor retention, skill gaps, and high training costs. This platform addresses these challenges by delivering short, focused, and interactive learning modules that can be accessed anytime, anywhere through mobile applications or familiar messaging platforms such as WhatsApp and Telegram. Its design emphasizes accessibility, simplicity, and engagement, making it easy for employees of all skill levels to participate in training without disrupting their daily work schedules. Leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies and vector databases, the platform personalizes lessons based on individual roles, prior learning history, and performance. The content is available in multiple languages, including vernacular options, and includes a variety of formats such as videos, audio, text, and interactive quizzes. Gamification features like points, badges, and completion streaks enhance motivation, while instant feedback and adaptive assessments improve retention and learning outcomes. For management, the platform offers real-time analytics dashboards, tracking progress, identifying skill gaps, and providing actionable insights to optimize training strategies. By combining accessibility, personalization, and data-driven insights, the Microlearning Platform not only improves skill development and employee engagement but also enhances overall productivity, reduces training costs, and ensures consistent learning across organizations of any size or industry. 2. EXISTING SYSTEM In the current system, workforce training primarily relies on traditional classroom sessions, printed manuals, and instructor-led workshops. These methods often lack consistency, as training quality depends on the trainer, location, and timing, resulting in uneven knowledge distribution. Additionally, long training sessions disrupt daily work schedules, making them time-consuming and inefficient. Non-tech-savvy and vernacular-speaking workers often struggle to access or comprehend digital content, limiting the reach and effectiveness of conventional training programs. Furthermore, existing systems suffer from low engagement and poor retention, as they rarely include interactive elements, quizzes, or gamification. Physical sessions also incur high costs due to logistics, trainer fees, and administrative overheads. Moreover, there is minimal analytics or tracking, making it difficult for management to monitor progress, identify skill gaps, or optimize training strategies. These challenges highlight the need for a modern, AI-powered microlearning platform that is accessible, personalized, and engaging for all employees. 3. PROPOSED SYSTEM The proposed system is an AI-driven Microlearning Platform that transforms workforce training into an accessible, engaging, and efficient process. It delivers short, focused learning modules through mobile applications and messaging platforms like WhatsApp and Telegram, ensuring that employees can access lessons anytime, anywhere, without disrupting their daily tasks. The platform supports vernacular languages, audio-based instructions, and multiformat content including videos, text, and interactive quizzes, making it suitable for non-tech-savvy and semi-literate Journal of Advancement in Software Engineering and Testing Page No. 28 http://www.hbrppublication.com 2026: 9 (1), 26-30 workers. By breaking training into bitesized modules, it enhances knowledge retention, reduces the duration of traditional training programs, and ensures consistent learning across all levels of the organization. Leveraging AI, machine learning, and vector database technologies, the system personalizes lessons according to each employee’s role, learning history, and performance patterns. Interactive assessments, instant feedback, and gamification features such as points, badges, and leaderboards increase learner engagement and motivation. Administrators benefit from real-time analytics and reporting dashboards that track completion rates, quiz scores, and skill gaps, enabling data-driven decisions for workforce development. The system is scalable, flexible, and cost-effective, making it ideal for diverse industries, large workforces, and continuous upskilling programs, ultimately improving productivity, engagement, and organizational efficiency. 4.
