eLearning courses, responsive or not, are most often bound by the availability of internet connectivity. Although, the training can be made available offline, it still requires a laptop at the very least. Learning apps allow learners to take their training on-the-go and send their progress back to an LMS whenever they are connected to a network.

Learning apps make training more accessible. With an online/offline system, learners can download and consume the content whenever they want. It is a flexible way to learn!

Content present in learning apps are in bite-sized chunks. Learners can consume this microlearning in shorter time frames and at their convenience.

The usage of smartphones is at its highest. Research indicates that an average smartphone user touches their mobile 2,617 times a day! Having training available as an app, at your fingertips, allows for higher and more frequent learner engagement. Learners can pull and push content whenever they want to.

Workplace learning apps: Make your microlearning content available to your learners on the go. Push your eLearning to the app and allow learners to pull the training whenever they need. It makes for great just-in-time learning. Access videos, SCORM compliant courses, and job-aids or reference materials (like, documents, presentations, and images) on the app. You can also start the onboarding process of new employees before the actual date of joining. Push your induction training, compliance information, etc. to the app so they are ready to get started the day they step into your office. Studies show this method can reduce the no-show percentage by 50%!

Performance support apps: Once the online training has been consumed by your learners, what happens next? Most organizations do not invest in post training follow up and coaching. Mobile apps can be designed for learners as well as their managers to provide post training follow up and coaching. Managers can check and monitor performance of their teams and provide feedback, coaching, or even design a new learning path based on how their team is performing.

Knowledge repository apps: Host a library of skill-based content and allow your learners to choose the training they want. Grow the skills of your team by allowing them to access training on their own time. You can also provide just-in-time training material available for learners to access whenever and wherever they need to.

LMS apps: Everything can be mobile, including your LMS. Our LMS Abara has a learner side app. This makes it possible to access your training anywhere, any time. The app won’t hinder the learning activity even if your network is affected. It pre-fetches the content seamlessly to have it ready to go for your learners. The offline LMS app is compatible with most devices as well as operating systems, such as iOS and Android.
