Description

At the start of the training programme participants attend and complete an online course, which equals a study period of about 6 weeks. This corresponds to 30 hours of intensive course and deals with the basic concepts, issues and problems addressed by the whole program.

Based on a specially designed environment, this on-line course module aims at bringing participants to the same level in order to form a more homogeneous learning team and thus making the physical seminars and workshops more effective.

During those on-line learning sessions methodologies will be explained with interactive examples and approaches will be presented through multimedia-based content.

The module will improve the participant's way of learning by allowing flexibility and individuality as well as connecting learners to each other and to resources supportive of their needs.

Before attending the next module, participants need to pass successfully an on-line exam, which will test their capability to continue. Candidates with successful attendance of the on-line course will receive on-line instructions and description of the off-line workshop and the projects to be implemented.
