Looking out for partners
Subject: Co-operation
Dear colleagues,
Let me inform you about our offer of a co-operation.
We are a specialised workplace of Palacký University in Olomouc, the Czech Republic. Our objective is to support and develop the distance learning in university studies and in lifelong learning programs.
Our team consists of experts with university degrees in the fields of andragogy, pedagogy, personnel management and foreign languages as well as of an experienced administrator of international projects.
We are implementing the program of lifelong learning focusing on the application of modern educational technologies. We have already hundreds of successful graduates.
We are working with e-learning tools and we are participating in their pedagogical and management development.
In addition to the above-mentioned, we have an experience with the co-ordination and implementation of several university and international projects.
Since we are completing our activities in some international projects this year, we would like to share our expertise in another international co-operation. We believe that the co-operation on international projects can contribute to an exchange of experience and to a mutual professional enrichment.
Please find attached a short description of our Centre.
We will be very pleased if you are interested in any form of a co-operation.
On behalf of the team of Centre of Distance Learning,
CDV Team
