The pandemic has revealed many benefits of electronic learning in terms of time saving and accessibility (no need to move, accessible even to people that are at a distance, and more accessible to disadvantaged groups including disabled individuals). Synchronous electronic learning has changed the whole process of learning based on the ADDIE model of synchronous electronic learning. This model focuses on the Analysis of training needs, Design and Development of materials being provided electronically and Implemented through a platform which is then Evaluated electronically. Online training also known as computer-based training, synchronous electronic learning, distance learning or e-learning is a form of instruction that takes place completely on the internet. There is a need for special skills from the trainer to be able to deliver high quality standard learning. SELCERT aims to develop a qualification (ISO certified) for trainers that deliver training online as there is lack of qualifications for trainers in synchronous electronic learning. The consortium of the project consists of six organisations from five countries (Cyprus, Greece, Poland, Sweden, Italy).

The objectives of the project are:

• To develop a qualification framework for trainers
• To develop curricula, materials and digital methodological tools to train the web trainers
• To develop a digital assessment tool achieving ISO17024 qualification
• To develop a digital resource center networking tool for the trainers on the web to use
• To develop a multimedia guide on how to adapt different techniques to be able to use them on different platforms
• To develop a best practices guide for the delivery of online learning
