M-learning System for Learning how to Prepare a Negotiation

The advance of Internet and mobile technologies makes the use of these elements become increasingly comprehensive, and distance learning is an area that takes many advantages of these technologies. Some tools and systems help this process, but the most important tool is e-learning. A more contemporary version of e-learning is the one found in mobiles devices, the m-learning system. The rapid advance of these technologies and their high dissemination determine this area as an important point in the decision makers' learning process. Following this point of view, this paper proposes a learning tool involving aspects of e-learning and m-learning for negotiators. This work will discuss how these tools can support professionals during the learning process of preparation step of negotiations. What is more, comparative and initial results will also be presented.
