knowledge resources,

learning activities & units of learning,

competence development programmes and

networks for lifelong competence development.

New innovative pedagogical approaches, assessment models and organisational models forlifelong competence development, supported by the TENCompetence infrastructure.

Software for the effective support of users who create, store, use and exchange knowledgeresources, learning activities, units of learning, competence development programmes andnetworks for lifelong competence development.

The consortium will disseminate the products widely and for free (using open source & creative commons licences).
