A Micro training is a multi-slide activity you add to a learning journey — a short lesson participants move through one slide at a time. Each slide can hold text, media, questions, and a few specialised elements, so a single Micro training can teach something, ask participants to reflect, and check what they took in.

This article walks through building one. For how a Micro training is structured — activity, slides, elements — see What can I add to a Micro training?, and for the full list of things you can drop on a slide, see Slide elements in a Micro training.

​

A new Micro training starts with one slide. Add another with the Slide button — each new slide comes in blank, ready for you to fill.

Slides play in the order they're listed, so the order is the lesson. Drag a slide to move it. Each slide also has a ... menu with a few actions:

​

Everything a participant sees on a slide is an element. Click the + on a slide to open the element menu, grouped into Content and layout (text, headings, images, video, audio, files, dividers), Questions (open-ended, multiple choice, rating, NPS, flashcards), and Advanced (like Previous answer and Thread). If you don't see the one you want, More building blocks opens the full set.

You can stack as many elements as you like on one slide. A teaching slide might be a heading, a short paragraph, and an image; a reflection slide might be a single open-ended question and nothing else.

​

Participants open the Micro training and move through it a slide at a time with Next. If a slide asks a question they need to answer, Next waits until they've answered before it lets them continue. When they pass the last slide, they reach the end screen — and you decide what that says. See End-screen and completion behaviour.

​

Preview the Micro training as a participant before you publish it. It's the quickest way to catch a slide that runs long, a question that isn't clear, or wording that doesn't match the rest of the journey.
