Managing Mobile Devices: BYOD and Loaner Devices

Overview

As institutions increasingly leverage mobile learning, certain critical questions are emerging as to how to best manage, distribute, and maintain these mobile devices. Join us online to examine different models and determine which ones may work for you. Using several institutional examples, we’ll answer these important questions:

  • What are some institutional business models for procuring mobile devices?
  • How do you ensure quality and set standards for these devices?
