Preparation of the training environment so that everyone can participate equally
The first step for preparing a training environment for showing the employees how to use a
mobile phone is the execution of a thorough training need analysis. The trainer can ask the
learners to fill a self-assessment form where they can identify the gap between skills
possessed in using the mobile phone and the expertise they need to acquire (Cloutier et
al.,2015). Secondly, the trainer needs to analyze the purpose that the training is meant for
instructing the learners on using the mobile phone.It would ensure that trainers and trainees
are on a similar platform so that both can focus on accomplishing similar aims and objectives.
Thirdly, the learning outcomes of using a mobile phone should be aligned with business
objectives and on the job responsibilities i.e. how the use of mobile by the employees would
help the company to accomplish its objectives. Fourthly, the trainer needs to plan appropriate
training methods for mobile learning such as instructing on how to use various functions of
the phone through various apps, etc. ( Training Partners Pte Ltd, 2019).
Approach used for the training session
As per Schlenker (2016), the training managers must look for the mobile capabilities of the
team. They need to ensure that their courses not only run on mobile devices but are also
optimized for them. If new employees are to be hired, then the training managers must make
sure that they do possess the basic knowledge of mobile phones. The Learning and
Development Couse should be designed should be a blend of various m-learning tools. They
can also prepare interactive instructional videos, animations, texts and images for meeting
their purpose.
Monitoring the progress of the people to ensure that they are learning
The best way to monitor the progress of people is to arrange post-training follow up sessions.
To evaluate the gaps in training and barriers to the effective transfer of learning is to send
follow up emails to the learners after a month for reinforcing the crucial learning points. The
trainers can arrange post-training follow up sessions for providing supplementary lessons.
They may also use this opportunity for making the employees practice their knowledge or
discuss their experiences about using the mobile phone as they attempt to implement the
knowledge practically in their job. These sessions also help the trainees to analyze the

challenges confronted by them as they start applying their skills at work along with the ways
by which they implement the concepts of using mobile phones and what were its
consequences (Beevers and Rea,2013).
Evaluation of the session once it is complete
As per Paul (2014), the trainers must prepare a questionnaire to know the opinion of the
learners in the training session. The questionnaire must contain a variety of questions
ranging from the rating of the pre-training preparation and the sequence of course. The
learners should also be asked if they feel equally involved in the course section. They must be
asked about their opinions on the course content and its consistency throughout the training
program. Last but not least, the trainers must also assess the learning experience of trainees,
efficiency of the m-learning program and execute follow up sessions to monitor the progress
of learners.
