Table 20 shows the use of learning technologies / tools by WSQ and Non-WSQ TPs. More WSQ TPs adopted learning technologies in the last 12 months than non-WSQ TPs. More than 85% of WSQ TPs have used web-based forums, collaborative tools while half of Non-WSQ TPs reported doing so. Similarly, around 1 in 5 WSQ TPs reporting using mobile applications, gamifications and simulations (e.g., AR, VR) in their programmes and services, but only 1 in 10 Non-WSQ TPs did so.
