An increasingly mobile workforce will demand learning methodologies that are not only "just in time" but are also "where I am, right now". Mobile learning is advancing blended learning into "learning surround" --to learn literally wherever you are. Although related to e-learning and distance learning, m-learning takes advantage of mobile devices for productivity, and serves to buttress and augment other forms of learning (classroom, webinars, e-learning, etc.). With devices such as iPhones and Blackberrys becoming ubiquitous, M-learning is poised for significant growth and has the potential to foster tremendous improvements in performance and productivity. This webcast will help your organization advance in the newest wave of learning for productivity.
