We live in a society, where people of all ages use digital technologies in their everyday lives. The online world is changing how education is resourced and delivered. With the rising number of adult learners, the vocational and adult education centers and institutions face a digital challenge and need to adapt their traditional teaching methods and offer a mix of face-to-face and online learning possibilities, such as MOOC, allowing individuals to access education anywhere, anytime and through any device. But many educational institutions and centers are not ready for this change.

DIGISOL - digital solutions as  a support for teachers and students - is Erasmus+ co-funded project that aims to develop a training course on digital solutions for adult education teachers and educators, increasing their digital skills.

The main objectives of this project are:

  • teach trainers and educators how to use different digital learning tools

  • give trainers and learners the possibility to have the blended learning approach (face-to-face + online)

  • help them choose the best digital learning solution for their individual needs

  • run a survey on specific digital needs of trainers in each partner institution country

  • develop a Curriculum for the training course Digital Solutions for Trainers and Educators (DIGISOL) in VET and adult education sectors

  • create a platform for DIGISOL

  • create online test and Certificates attesting the acquisition of new digital skills and competences

Three main learning modules

  • Cyber Security and Digitization

    Data protection (Data privacy principles, confidentiality, creating passwords and digital authentication); Security risks (cybersecurity); Copyrigts
