Abstract :
Learners now have to function in an ever changing world, and so need to be competent for it. Professional learning/ workplace learning has to be competency oriented. At the same time the learning activities have to be constructivism based. On distance learning is becoming a priority. We saw the evolution from e-learning to blended learning. In the new model of blended learning, the learning process is competency directed and is composed of constructivism based learning activities, some of them face to face activities and others being online activities. A blended e-learning model is developed for on distance learners and professional learners. Also a hybrid model for mixing regular students and professionals or distance students is developed.
