The European Commission currently discusses the topic of e-skills and the use of e-learning contents to improve skill gaps for the European workforce. The recent study "European Exchange Mechanism for e-Learning Content for e-Skills and Networking of Training and Research Centres" (see http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/sectors/ict/files/eskills__elearning_en.pdf ) includes NORDLET as a point of reference for activities in the field. The outcome of the study shows the needs of integrating European initiatives and creating portal solutions - the consequences are not clear, but NORDLET will definetely contribute towards such a European initiative.

NORDLET is present at the Digital Innovation Workshop in the Nokia Innovation Center in Tampere as another local event.
There is a variety of topics at the workshop, mainly focusing on social media, mobile environments and very new applications. We are happy to present NORDLET and Open Education concepts there as we see this as a main driver for innovation. Slides are avalable at http://tinyurl.com/oer-digiinno
