Official Launch
of the ITU Academy
ITU
20 May 2009, 14:00 -
14:30
ITU Headquarters, Room A
-
ITU Academy
http://academy.itu.int will be a
common platform and repository of all
know-how and ICT training materials
developed and delivered by the ITU.
Through a harmonized approach to
instructional design, improved
media-rich presentation and quality
standards, we plan to better leverage
the use and reuse of the extensive ICT
information and training resources
available at the ITU.
-
Benefits include providing more
flexibility for learners and curricula
tutors, multiple learning paths for a
wide range of learners (ranging from 15
minute guides to in-depth training), and
a consistent and more structured
approach to ITU’s capacity building
activities – whether delivered
face-to-face or through e-learning.
-
ITU Academy also integrates multiple
languages and Web 2.0 social networking
and collaboration tools (e.g., forums,
wikis, blogs, etc.) to support our
capacity building activities. It also
provides support for our network of
partners (e.g., ITU’s Centres of
Excellence), strengthening their
institutional capacity to deliver world
class know-how and expertise in
specialized telecommunications and ICT
training.
