Design Process

  1. Analysis: Reviewed existing food safety and allergen awareness posters used in restaurant operations to identify key safety messages, compliance requirements, and expected employee behaviors. Source materials included food allergen awareness guidance and employee illness reporting requirements

  2. Design: Identified the most critical learning outcomes from the source materials and converted them into measurable learning objectives. Developed knowledge checks and assessment questions to reinforce employee understanding of food safety protocols, illness reporting requirements, and allergen awareness practices.

  3. Development: Designed and developed an interactive microlearning experience in Articulate Rise 360. Content was organized into learner-friendly modules and enhanced with knowledge checks, scenarios, and a final assessment to support engagement and retention.

  4. Implementation: This training asset is prepared for rollout and will be introduced during upcoming safety communications and onboarding sessions. Once implemented, feedback will be collected from surveys to evaluate clarity, usability, and overall impact on timely injury reporting.
