Ten learners taking a six week web-based e-learning course were given smart phones which enabled them to access approximately 70% of the course content, in addition to having access to the full course via a standard e-learning website. Mobile content was provided in a variety of forms, including text, audio and video files, a mobile multiple-choice quiz website, and links to streaming videos. Study participants who were regular users of mobile phones found the mobile learning materials to be user-friendly, offering increased convenience and flexibility. Use of the mobile content tended to increase as learners spent more time in their day away from locations where Internet-linked computers could be found. Video was found to be the most effective means of presenting content, followed by audio and text. The most promising role of mobile learning appears to be to augment rather than replace e-learning or blended learning.  \nRésumé  \nUn projet de recherche qualitative s ’est déroulé pour tester la viabilité d’accroître un programme de formation en ligne utilisant du contenu mobile livré par l’entremise de téléphones intelligentspour les apprenants en milieu de travail. Dix apprenants suivant un cours de formation en ligne de six semaines ont reçu des téléphones intelligents qui leur ont permis d’avoir accès à environ 70 % du contenu du cours, en plus d’avoir accès au cours complet par l ’entremise d’un site Web de formation en ligne traditionnel. Le contenu mobile a été fourni dans divers formats, y compris des fichiers textes, audio et vidéo, un site mobile offrant un questionnaire à choix multiples et des liens vers du contenu vidéo en ligne. Les participants à l ’étude habitués à utiliserrégulièrement un téléphone intelligent ont trouvé que le matériel offert était convivial et offraitune commodité et une polyvalence accrues. L’utilisation du contenu mobile a eu tendance à augmenter lorsque les apprenants passaient plus de temps dans des endroits où on ne trouvait pas d’ordinateur branché à Internet. Les utilisateurs ont trouvé que la vidéo offrait la méthode la plus  \nCJLT/RCAT Vol. 37(1)  \nefficace pour présenter le contenu, suivie du format audio et du format texte. Il semble que lerôle le plus prometteur de la formation mobile soit de complémenter la formation en ligne ou la formation hybride plutôt que de la remplacer.  \nIntroduction  \nThe University of British Columbia (UBC) Centre for Advanced Wood Processing (CAWP) is Canada’s national centre for education, research, and outreach services for Canada’s wood products manufacturing industry. In January 2008, CAWP was awarded a contract by Human Resources & Social Development Canada to develop a national online management training program for the wood products manufacturing sector. A 200 hour course consisting of eight 25 hour online learning modules was created. E-learning was adopted as the delivery mode for the training program because of the flexibility that it offers in terms of study schedules and location. However, the development team felt that mobile communication devices such as smart phones could offer even greater flexibility and convenience for learners, allowing them to access learning materials without being tied to a desktop or laptop computer. This hypothesis was the catalyst for the mobile learning pilot course and research project described below. The study was conducted with the aims of answering the following research questions:  \n1.
