Mobile learning is analyzed as an organization and solution of problems for complex, systematic informatization of educational activities and the implementation of measures aimed at integrating educational, scientific and managerial activities of an educational institution for the training of competitive specialists who possess a professional specialty based on modern information and telecommunication technologies. It is shown that the implementation of mobile learning involves solving a number of tasks; the development of mobile learning tools forces a new look at the technologies for implementing distance learning. The mission of an educational institution that implements mobile learning is to realize the transition from an industrial society to an information society, to use a network information and educational environment, to provide open and distance education throughout life or work based on new information and telecommunication technologies. Such an educational institution offers educational services based on a combination of network, video interactive technology and wireless access to resources, anytime and anywhere. The author's view on the formation of the mobile learning system in open distance education consists in the formulation of key provisions, which we include: the vision of mobile learning; the goal of an educational institution implementing mobile learning; purpose and tasks of mobile learning in open distance education; mobile learning technologies; didactic possibilities, properties and functions of mobile learning; multimedia core as a basis and carrier of mobile learning knowledge. As part of the research, we formulated a vision of mobile learning in an educational institution, which we understand as an ideal picture of the future, as a state that can be achieved under the most favorable conditions.
