The iEducate project, funded by the EU programme Leonardo da Vinci, will transfer learning technology innovations developed in European and other projects which were originally developed for and with learners to vocational education and training professionals (VETPROS) across Europe. This will be achieved through experiential approaches including an e-learning course on Learning Technologies, a virtual teacher training island in Second Life with virtual workshops and resources, an interactive web 2.0 Website (with downloadable resources) and live training courses.

A reciprocal arrangement will be made whereby VETPROS in receipt of training/support will be encouraged to provide ideas on how they have implemented technologies in their learning for use by others, thus forming a continuous cycle of exchange and transfer across Europe. The partnership is made up of six partners from the UK, Sweden, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Germany and combines a wide range of complementary skills and expertise including expertise on technologies for learning/e-learning, access to vast numbers of VETPROS across Europe, research and evaluation and experience and contacts to facilitate an effective dissemination/valorisation process.

The purpose of this project is to educate vocational teachers in a range of e-learning methods, innovations and technologies to better prepare them for a rapidly changing workplace and, hence, to connect them with a new generation of learners.

Vocational teachers and trainers can also participate in our thematic working groups to exchange ideas and experiences with European colleagues in the area of:

  • Self employment and enterprise
  • Media, language and communication
  • Culture and heritage
  • ICT and Disabilities

The project is also organising transnational meetings. It is the aim of every meeting to involve national stakeholders, teachers and trainers, people from IT companies etc. for an exchange about the topic. The important input given will support the team members in their work and guarantee the creation of customised and useful offers for vocational education.
