Mission Statement
Digital media is becoming the main mean of communication and participation in society. Because its benefits are not yet available to everyone, the people who facilitate digital competences are becoming increasingly important in today´s time and need our support to offer the best possible help.
The project
The project Trans e-facilitator offers a curriculum for facilitators of digital competences (“e-facilitators”), based on a set of learning modules which are adapted to specific national needs. These needs have been identified in national surveys analysing e-facilitators’ tasks and competence gaps. Within the project trainers will be trained in the locally important modules and will then pass on their knowledge to other e-facilitators. The project aims at a nationally standardized and recognized training for e-facilitators.
Trans e-facilitator at Telecentre-Europe Conference 2014

From 24th till 26th of September 2014 more than 100 participants and speakers from European institutions, foundations and associations, partner organisations, NGOs, universities, and ICT industry come in Zagreb, Croatia together to discuss about challenges regarding digital inclusion, e-facilitators as multipliers of digital skills and media literacy. On the second day the Trans e-facilitator consortium will present their project by showing the 2-step trainer approach, the results of the pilot testing and the final modular curriculum.
