10 Stats That Prove Mobile Learning Lives up to The Hype

Are you curious to know what the future of mobile learning looks like? Come and see for yourself!

It shouldn’t come as any surprise that the momentum of mobile technologies hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down. After all, more people than ever before – 2 billion, in fact – are constantly head-down, tapping away on their touch-screens, messaging friends on Facebook, sharing selfies on Instagram, or working on big projects over Slack.

Indeed, there’s a lot of chatter about mobile learning and how it can be most effectively worked into the L&D mix. It’s not a new topic in the world of corporate learning, but rather one that’s been dependent on developments in technology (and the functionalities delivered by those technologies) to satisfy the needs of learning organization and the users of their e-learning platforms.

The benefits of mobile learning are well-known for organizations both big and small, especially as it relates to improved knowledge retention and increased employee engagement. These factors are even more important when you consider the fact that workforces around the world are at a crossroads, on which Baby Boomers and Gen-Xers are retiring (or preparing to), making way for the mobile-dependant Millennial and Gen-Z cohorts.

Making sure your learning activities connect with this new workforce depends on your ability to make your content seamlessly accessible through mobile devices.

The future of mobile learning might look a little different than you’d expect. Here are 10 stats that prove that making the leap into mobile-enabled learning will be the core component to guiding your learning activities into the future.
