to jog someone's memory is to help them try to remember something, while to trigger a memory is to cause a memory to instantly appear in someone's head.

they are similar, but have subtle differences in the feeling of remembering and if it is on purpose or not. usually, if someone is trying and struggling to remember something, someone or something can help by "jogging their memory", sort of giving them a boost to help them get there (though it might not be successful in the end)
