ACTIVITY AIM OF e-LEARNING CONSORTIUM JAPAN |
 The e-Learning is growing as an important strategy to improve productivity in enterprise offices and as an education technique to fulfill educational curriculum in higher education and to extend completely new activity field such as introduction of teaching methods. Furthermore, individuals are also possible to improve their work skills and to advance study of hobby fields with use of the e-Learning at their desired time by personal computer at their homes. Under such background, the Non Profit Organization [e-Learning Consortium Japan] (hereafter "eLC") was established in October 2001, in order to continuously promote an aggressive support activity for users and e-Learning enterprisers with powers of industry, government and school concentrated.
We are thinking to be an importance to build the relationship of which many personals relating to the e-Learning should participate in this activity beyond organization frames of enterprise, school, government authority and others, and cooperate each other.
Major eLC activities are three as follows:
- Acquisition, investigation, research and supply of e-Learning related information
- Enlightenment activity to users and enterprisers of e-Learning, development of educational program and educational actual state
- Study of standardization technology regarding e-Learning system and contents and standardization promotion
