Abstract :
The progress of a project for the training of e-learning professionals in South East Asia is reported in this paper. A Web-based survey identified key areas for the professional development. The process of content design is explained as well as the enrichment of the pedagogical model. The Virtual Training Environment is underpinned by this model and the potential role of learning objects is consequently discussed.
