knowledge retention

Knowledge retention is the process of preserving and maintaining the information and skills you've learned over time. It involves how well you remember and can recall what you've studied or experienced later on. Good retention depends on factors like meaningful learning, regular review, and application of knowledge. When retention is high, information stays accessible in your memory longer, helping you perform tasks or make decisions effectively. Conversely, poor retention means learned information fades quickly, requiring frequent review or practice to reinforce it. Effective retention strategies help ensure that valuable knowledge remains useful and accessible when needed.
