THE NEXUS OF MOBILE AND SOCIAL TECHNOLOGY
               IN TRAINING




        Presented by Vinay Nilakantan  Director of Product
        Development and Research, Meridian Knowledge
        Solutions, LLC
The Impact of Mobile
 By 2015, 80% of people accessing the Internet will be doing so from mobile
  devices.
 Perhaps more important for training, Internet capable mobile devices will
  outnumber computers within the next year

 The ability for this shift in access to take place is driven by three main
  factors:
         Increased number of mobile devices
         Dynamic web content
         Increased network infrastructure to support high bandwidth content

* Statistics provided by The Horizon Report  2011 Edition
Mobile Usage
Social Footprint
 The Facebook generation
 Everything to go, please

 The power of the crowd
 Everyone is invited
 Stay on your toes (Spotify vs. MOG)

 Recognize the power of this
 The new outreach for companies
 And here comes big data
The Mobile Connect
         Mobile powerhouses
         iPads for everyone
         Networking between all devices
         2G. 3G. 4G. 4G LTE.
         The mobile device replaces the
          wallet
         Heavy social usage through the
          mobile device
         Voice!
The intersection of training
 Byte sized learning or crumb learning is optimized through a social
  experience.
 Creating channels where users can subscribe to subject matter
  experts
 Peer networking through Learning Management Systems or Portals
 Corporate training announcements through mobile and social
 On the job checklists for real time evaluations
 Disconnected Learning  Creating more training opportunities
 Peer scoring and recognition through Performance Management
  support
Mobile, Social, Global  Some examples
   You get assigned for some Required Training / compliance training and a
    message will show up in your iPhone notification bar that you have one
    training item to complete.

   If a forum post that you started gets a response, you get notified of that and
    also allows you to update that forum post through a twitter like (128 word
    capacity) message. And then keep getting updates to that.

   Get real time stats on a mini dashboard on your mobile device that indicates
    what courses are the most popular through a ranking system.

   If you access a course, through a single click, broadcast that to either
    Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn to share with your social network the event of
    you taking that course.

   Perform a search on the organizations wiki / knowledge base to find quick
    answers to questions.

   Rate courses and content to influence others who might be interested in that
    same content.
Changes!
Here are some examples
