Southwest Michigan Event: Designing Training....Is there an App for That?

Designing Training.... Is there an App for That?

Mobile devices provide an opportunity for us to create learning materials “in the field” or “on the go” and as apps continue to be developed we find that our productivity increases when we are away from the office.  Using mobile tools to create learning materials becomes a big part of the informal learning experience. 

Based on her best-selling book, “111 Apps for the Learning Professional’s Toolkit” author Debbie Myrand will guide us through the overwhelming options of apps from the Apple and Google Play stores.

Charge the batteries to your mobile devices and come ready to immerse yourself in small group activities!  Get a “sampling” of the endless possibilities for developing training using 21^st century technology!!  Don’t have a smartphone or tablet?  No problem - some of the mobile apps are also available for desktop computing.
