Whether an app is the best way to provide such training is a different question
This. I have received excellent workplace training, but never through an app. Actual human instructors can do things that apps can't like discuss the experiences of individuals in the class, or respond to questions about subtle nuances in behavior.
Doing training via an app is IMO, a way for the company to check off that you've been trained, whether or not it was useful. Online training is good for those things that don't require much thought like fire safety or office ergonomics. It's all but useless for things like harassment training.
