Employee Onboarding Microlearning Module AI Prompt
Creating onboarding training from scratch takes longer than it should. You have to pick the right topics, keep lessons short, and prove people understood them. If you skip details, the content turns generic fast.
A strong prompt fixes that. It gives the AI your role, your audience, and the exact outcomes you need. You’ll get a ready-to-build microlearning module with clear steps and quick knowledge checks.
AskSmarter.ai helps you get there by asking the 4–5 questions you might forget. It captures your learners, constraints, and success metrics, then turns them into a structured prompt.
You’ll ship consistent training faster and reduce ramp time for new hires.
The transformation
Before — Vague prompt
Create an onboarding training module for new employees about our company policies.
After — Optimized prompt
You’re an instructional designer. Create a 5-lesson microlearning module for new Customer Success hires at a B2B SaaS company.
- Define 3 measurable objectives for the module.
- For each lesson, provide: title, 2–3 key points, a 120–160 word script, and one real-work example.
- Add 1 knowledge check per lesson (3 questions, multiple choice) with the correct answers.
Tone: friendly, direct, and professional. Constraints: mobile-first, 4 minutes per lesson. Topics: security basics, customer data handling, meeting notes, escalation rules, and acceptable tools.
Why this works
The improved prompt works because it removes guesswork and sets tight boundaries.
It adds clear context you usually hold in your head, like the role, team, and company type. That context changes the examples and language the AI will use.
It also adds structure, so you get usable training parts instead of a long essay. You’ll receive objectives, lesson scripts, and knowledge checks in one pass.
Key upgrades you can see:
- Clarity: it specifies 5 lessons, 4 minutes each, and mobile-first delivery.
- Audience fit: it targets Customer Success hires, not “employees” in general.
- Output format: it demands titles, key points, scripts, examples, and answers.
- Tone control: it locks in friendly, direct, professional writing.
AskSmarter.ai reaches this quality by asking focused questions about learners, constraints, topics, and success criteria. Those answers become the final prompt, which improves first-try results.
