Our industry is evolving and bringing us new ways to reach employees beyond the classroom and into the workflow. But how can we do that in a way that is relevant and contextual? How can we increase retention, refocus learners, and create additional opportunities to learn on the job? One promising approach is by using mobile coaching apps and platforms. These technologies offer several ways for learners to do things such as role-play outside the classroom environment, receive push notifications throughout a learning experience, and even ask questions and get immediate answers. And it’s not just for learners; managers can use coaching apps to track their coaching sessions, which can help them follow up more frequently and stay accountable.
In this webcast, we will examine ideal use cases, share a few examples in practice today, discuss considerations, and talk about how to gain sponsor support to burst out of the classroom and into your learners' hands—right where they are doing the work.
During this interactive webcast, Ann Rollins and Britney Cole will provide easy-to-understand insights on:

what types of mobile coaching apps and platforms are available
when mobile coaching can be used to increase retention, engage, and drive results
how organizations are using mobile coaching apps and platforms as training reinforcement and as performance support
planning and design considerations for incorporating a mobile coaching element in your learning plans.
 


Anytime, Anywhere: Harnessing the Power of Mobile Coaching

As the talent development field evolves and attracts a global pool of professionals with diverse skills and experiences, new questions arise: Have the competencies of instructional design (ID) changed? Should they change? How has ID evolved during the past few decades? Are instructional designers’ competencies keeping up with the pace of change?
Through a collaborative partnership between the Association for Talent Development (ATD), the International Association for Continuing Education and Training (IACET), and Rothwell & Associates (R&A), the R&A research team implemented a research study to investigate the proposed questions. The results from this study support three major findings, which participants will explore during this webcast:

The skills required in the ID area of expertise developed by ATD remain highly relevant in today’s evolving field.
Although technology is constantly changing, the challenges faced by instructional designers are less about technology and more about serving the multitude of varied learners, as well as maintaining momentum and a relationship with the subject matter expert.
ID has evolved during the past couple of decades, and there is an ongoing need to promote the value and understanding of the ID professional’s role in talent development.
