Demand has been developing both by corporations seeking to extend the skills of their employees and by individuals pursuing life long training for the achievement of their career goals. While a wealth of educational material is available throughout Europe, a large number of institutions do not currently offer organized distance education programs. Furthermore, it is desirable to promote existing distance education initiatives through information dissemination. Publication Service Content Mgmt Node publication Standalone Content External Collection External Collection Services for • Learners • Content Providers • Course Managers • Administrators eCMS The eCMS project aims to support asynchronous eLearning through an open, federated content management system that facilitates thepublication, dissemination, and access to possibly distributed educational content through a single point on the web. eCMS provides content discovery and retrieval services for learners, publication and editing services for content providers, development of structured courses and management services for course managers (course organizers), and repository management and statistics analysis services for administrators. In addition, a basic on-line collaboration environment is available to facilitate the learning process through learner-learner and learner-instructor communication.
