With the shift towards the knowledge society, the change of working conditions and the high-speed

evolution of information and communication technologies, peoples' knowledge and skills need
continuous up-dating. Learning, based on collaborative working, creativity, multidisciplinary, adaptive
ness, intercultural communication and problem solving, has taken on an important role in everyday life.
The learning process is becoming pervasive, both for individuals and organizations, in formal education,
in the professional context and as part of leisure activities. Learning should be accessible to every
citizen, independent of age, education, social status and tailored to his/her individual needs. Promoting
digital literacy will encourage the acquisition of new skills and knowledge that we all need for personal
and professional development and for active participation in an information-driven society. It will also
address ICT�s contribution to learning, especially for those who, due to their geographical location,
socio-economic situation or special needs, do not have easy access to traditional education and
training. �Department of Information Technology Project' 'training of trainers in elearning� initiative
aims to step the the training drive at all levels, for promoting universal digital literacy and general
availability of appropriate training for teachers and trainers, including technology training as well as
courses on the educational use of technology and management of change. The elearning initiative
