Key objectives for the Community are to create and maintain
communities of practice and encourage the development of flexible
learning networks within the VET sector. In 2004, this project
will:
- Provide an ongoing calendar of online resources and events
which support the professional development needs of VET
practitioners integrating e-learning and blended approaches
to their development and delivery of VET products and services.
- Provide an online professional development service that
encourages and facilitates the development of networks and
communities of practice across diverse groups of VET practitioners
- Foster sustainable professional practices, through the
development of mechanisms and systems, which enable VET
practitioners and managers to stay abreast of trends, key
initiatives and other e-learning developments nationally
and internationally.

"Well I think it's fantastic! So
many new features, much cleaner layout, lots of clear
links to other parts of the site, and it seems to run
fairly quickly. Well done to all the team and I look
forward to dropping in on a regular basis."
