UK Training Industry Press Releases

The eLearning Network (eLN) - a non-profit organisation run by the e-learning community for the e-learning community - has revised its membership criteria. There are now four levels of full membership available, in addition to the associate membership grade.

Last year, the eLN introduced a free associate membership scheme. Any learning and development specialist, designer, developer, supplier, consultant, tutor, student or academic is encouraged to register for eLN associate membership.

"We offer free membership because the eLN is essentially a community of practice, in which members get to share experiences and support each other in their efforts to make successful use of e-learning within their organisations," explained the eLN's chairman, Clive Shepherd. "We believe this network will benefit by enfranchising all members of the e-learning community, at whatever level and whatever the field of interest."

 Associate members benefit from:

• Social networking through the eLN website
• Regular e-learning news
• Free participation in the eLN's webinar programme
• Online resources including links, a book list, an extensive glossary,guides to best practice, products, services and courses
• The chance to participate in polls and surveys about all aspects of e-learning
