testimony supports the fact that e-Learning can enrich and
transform their learning experiences. Lively debates today focus
on creativity, design, rigour, value added and fit-for-purpose
web-based services, not if “e” works!

simulations or learning through smart games, the 2006 Awards for
innovation and excellence in e-learning will put momentum into
an already exciting and inter-disciplinary industry that
naturally twins learning and business.”
