The workshop will discuss the current situation of ICT for education and training in Member States, the potential obstacles to full scale adoption of eLearning, and the necessary pre-conditions to mainstreaming it in formal and informal learning processes (ICT infrastructures, teachers' competencies, etc).

The expected outcome is a set of priorities and actions encouraging Member States to innovate in their education and training through adopting and integrating eLearning into teaching and training. It should also include recommendations to the Commission on how to support the Member States in this endeavour. This workshop will represent the "kick-off" of the Digital Agenda action 68.

The keynote will be held by Markku Markulla, Member of the EU Committee of Regions (CoR Rapporteur on Digital Agenda and on the Role of Regions in Achieving the Objectives of EU 2020) on "ICT in modernisation of education and training across Europe".
