Description of Project:

DELID is a Leonardo Da Vinci project funded by the European Commission. It was conceived on the basis that the use of e-learning still remains at a very low level in SMEs, despite a great number of developments in e-learning methodology. DELID is developing a methodology for e-learning courses for small and medium-sized enterprises. The project resulted in new e-learning offers that are perfectly adapted to the needs of the SMEs and a methodology which describes how e-learning courses can be adapted to better fit the needs of SMEs.

The aim of the DELID project was to encourage SMEs to introduce and extend existing e-Learning activities and provide applied know-how for the adaptation and integration of e-Learning material in enterprises. In the project time the following activities, among others, were carried out.
