In April 2024 the e-learning courses have been launched on the platform WiseLearn.
Interested learners 60+ can register here.

Expected impact:

The results produce a high impact given their adaptability to the diversity of European populations 60+ and their relevance for many Higher Education Institutions (HEI) aspiring to build a complementary learning infrastructure for Europeans aged 60+. The toolbox and guidance can be used to calculate costs, resources, and effects of tailored online learning platforms and are of immediate interest to any HEI desiring to consolidate or revamp their offer in Third-Age Education or to launch themselves in this field. They are bound to retain the attention of Higher Education authorities, HE organizations and Foundations, as well as local, regional, national and European authorities.

Transferability potential:

The PR’s transferability potential is high. The e-learning courses, toolbox and its related reports are available in open access mode for all interested HEIs willing to offer e-learning to their senior communities and to senior citizens themselves. The toolbox permits developers to create and adjust local solutions compatible with online learning platforms for citizens 60+ and to add value by facilitating virtual student exchange and sharing of e-learning material, while maintaining the context-specificity of the implications and communities reached.
