E-learning & Employability Skills

E-learning (or electronic based learning) eliminates barriers associated with traditional classroom training, such as cost, time, distance and socioeconomic status, and empowers people to take charge of their own lifelong learning. The people who benefit from this campaign gain far more than an education - they gain the promise of a better life and a renewed sense that they will have a chance to achieve their hopes and dreams in the 21st century.

of Learning

As the education sector moves on-line and as young people embark on the school-to-work transition, e-learning offers a unique opportunity to combine the power of technology and global networks with the infinite economic potential that is released when people acquire, create and apply knowledge and skills.
