5 Ways to Prevent Job Hopping and Reduce Employee Turnover

Should You Take the Leap? 5 Factors to Consider Before Job Hopping

This webinar goes beyond the reasoning that because 40 percent of web content is consumed via mobile phone, and more than half of American adults have smartphones, you must create mobile learning. As educators, we will look at mobile learning with a focus on learning, and not on the fact that mobile devices are ubiquitous. We will examine a framework that helps you evaluate mobile learning based on what you must teach, how learning occurs, and the instructional tactics required to support your learning objectives. Understanding the instructional benefits and limitations of a range of mobile learning options will help you advocate for mobile learning when it makes sense, and provide you the foundation to address those who advocate for mobile learning simply because these devices are everywhere.
After attending the webcast, you will be able to:

Explain three learning theories regarding how learning occurs, the role of the instructor and learner, and the optimal application to learning.
Evaluate the benefits and limitations of formal mobile learning based on your objectives.
Discuss examples of instructional strategies that support behaviorist and cognitivist learning theories.
 


Applying Learning Theory to Mobile Learning

Are HR and L&D professionals meeting employee expectations when it comes to corporate training? Are training courses of the status quo teaching employees essential skills in the new normal? Gamelearn launched a survey that analyzes answers from more than 1,500 professionals and employees across the United States and Europe to answer these questions and identify key trends storming the corporate training sector in 2021. Interested in finding out what we uncovered?

More than 70 percent of HR and L&D professionals claimed to have rushed transforming their training materials into digital-friendly courses in 2020. As a result of the pandemic, digital training programs were no longer a “nice-to-have” but a “must-have.” Without warning, face-to-face training became a thing of the past. Videos, PDF documents, and PowerPoint presentations were the top three training formats professionals used to digitize their courses in 2020. But will these formats be enough to upskill or reskill employees in 2021? The results featured in Gamelearn’s new report tell all.

Join Priscilla Villaseñor, business unit leader at Gamelearn, to talk about the status of corporate training, identifying methodologies gaining traction in the industry, and whether or not professionals will give employees the digital courses they want in 2021. If there was a time to revamp your online corporate training strategy, it’s now.
 
During this event, you will:

Learn what employees have valued more in training in 2020 and compare with what companies have prioritized.
Discover how the best in the industry have adapted to the new normal.
Get insights on what challenges L&D will be facing in 2021.
