ACCESS IT online course to be launched in Turkey
ACCESS IT e-learning courses were developed to facilitate education in the area of digitisation and digital libraries in Greece, Serbia and Turkey. Reference materials developed by PSNC – released in October 2010, were deployed, translated and customized by ACCESS IT partners. We are very pleased to announce that this work has been finished in Turkey.

Prof. Bülent Yılmaz (coordinator of ACCESS IT project in Turkey) from Hacettepe University in Ankara informed us that Turkish online education program will be launched on 10 January 2011 (next Monday). Turkish portal is available here.

Most of the “Digital Repositories for small memory institutions” (DRMSI) course was translated into Turkish. Apart from this, DRMSI course was divided into two smaller courses: “Digitisation” and “Digital Content management”. As a result of this work Turkish students can participate in three courses (the third one is unchanged “Cooperation with Europeana”) . Students who finishes given course and pass the final exam would obtain an ACCESS IT certificate signed by Hacettepe University.

First edition of the course will be open till 6th of March 2011.
