The Behavioral Science Behind Skill Bolts
Learning that works, because it’s built on what works.
The Science We
Stand
On
Cognitive Load Theory
People learn best when information is broken down and delivered in manageable chunks. That’s why our sessions are short, focused, and free of fluff—so your brain isn’t overwhelmed and your attention isn’t stretched thin.
Ebbinghaus’ Forgetting Curve
Within 24 hours, we forget nearly 70% of what we’ve learned—unless it’s applied. That’s why every Skill Bolts includes a built-in In Action segment, so participants use what they’ve learned while it’s still fresh—which accelerates retention and performance.
Bandura’s Social Learning Theory
People learn from observing others, sharing experiences, and reflecting together. That’s why our sessions include peer learning, guided prompts, and team-based debriefs to anchor behavior through connection.
BJ Fogg’s Behavior Model
Behavior change happens when motivation, ability, and triggers intersect. We don’t just inform—we shift behavior by building motivation, simplifying action, and embedding cues to practice skills in real work settings.
Why Our Format Works
Traditional Training Delivery
Long, passive sessions
Generic, theory-heavy content
One-time exposure
High time & cost investment
Forgettable after the session
Skill Bolts Format
Short, focused, interactive
Tailored, practical application
Built-in action + reinforcement
Time-smart & budget-friendly
Applied immediately, remembered longer
Insight → Action → Retention → Behavior Change
That’s the Skill Bolts path.
Why Our Format Works
We didn’t just shorten training. We redesigned it.
Traditional Training Delivery
- Full-day or multi-day sessions
- Generic content with limited customization
- Passive learning (slides, lectures)
- Focus on knowledge transfer
- Delivered quarterly or annually
- One-size-fits-all topics
- Trainer-led with minimal interaction
- Hard to measure long-term impact
Skill Bolts Design & Delivery
- Bite-sized, high-impact sessions up to 180 minutes
- Tailored, psychology-based content for real-time relevance
