Challenge
Certified two years ago. Can they still perform the procedure?
73% of procedural knowledge decays within 90 days without reinforcement. Spaced retrieval keeps critical knowledge current — without pulling technicians off the floor for retraining.
Training completion is not the same as knowledge retention.
Your workforce completed the training. They passed the assessments. They received their certifications. That was 18 months ago. Since then, they have performed some procedures hundreds of times and others not at all. The procedures they perform daily are sharp. The procedures they perform quarterly are not.
This is not a failure of commitment or ability. It is how human memory works. Hermann Ebbinghaus documented the forgetting curve in 1885: without active reinforcement, retention drops exponentially. In aerospace, the procedures that decay fastest are often the ones that matter most — the emergency procedures, the rarely performed inspections, the edge-case configurations.
AmpUp measures retention continuously and reinforces knowledge at the point of decay — not on a fixed calendar, and not by repeating the entire training course.
Measure decay. Reinforce at the right time. Prove retention.
Spaced retrieval methodology keeps procedural knowledge current — targeted to the specific areas where each individual's retention has decayed.
Retention Measurement
Continuous assessment identifies exactly which procedures each technician has retained and which have decayed. No guessing, no assumptions.
Spaced Retrieval
Targeted reinforcement at the point of decay — the specific procedure, the specific technician, the specific knowledge gap. Not blanket retraining.
Retention Proof
Documented evidence that knowledge was retained, not just delivered. Every reinforcement interaction is logged, timestamped, and audit-ready.
Without reinforcement, 73% of procedural knowledge decays within 90 days. With AmpUp's spaced retrieval methodology, retention at 90 days reaches 92% — a direct result of targeted reinforcement at the individual procedure level.
