 Once you have [installed Go][golang-install], install the `mockgen` tool.
 
+**Note**: If you have not done so already be sure to add `$GOPATH/bin` to your
+`PATH`.
+
 To get the latest released version use:
 
+### Go version < 1.16
+
 ```bash
 GO111MODULE=on go get github.com/golang/mock/[email protected]
 ```
 
+### Go 1.16+
+
+```bash
+go install github.com/golang/mock/[email protected]
+```
+
 If you use `mockgen` in your CI pipeline, it may be more appropriate to fixate
 on a specific mockgen version.
