Knowledge transfer on the move

Rob Sharpe, Director, Sales Training & Recruiting, Black & Decker

Black and Decker has made mobile learning an integral part of its training. That means combining it with other learning media - including web 2.0 collaborative tools - allowing employees on the move to learn through courses, blogs and wikis.

Collaboration is a key theme. Learners are encouraged to author and contribute their own content, including video, and to educate not only themselves, but customers and each other:

  • The power of user-generated content
  • Authoring video right for maximum impact
  • Tracking delivery and use
  • Using smart search to go beyond 'push' learning
  • Blending mobile with face-to-face and other elearning offerings
