Within the C95-Challenge Erasmus+ project, mobile learning technologies are adopted and tested for bus and truck drivers training according to the EU 2003/59/EC Directive. Different kinds of training contents are developed in the form of interactive slides, hyper-videos, interactive quizzes and delivered on mobile devices. Existing apps and games are also considered to learn specific topics. The preliminary results from the target users involved in pre-pilot testing are positive: both trainers and drivers recognise the potential of these new learning technologies and understand the added value in terms of easy access to resources, mobile fruition, reduction of time, no need to move to a specific place for the training, engagement of the interactive material, flexibility in the training path. Users also identify some issues and provide interesting suggestions for future improvements. [For the full proceedings, see ED571335.]
