GOOD PRACTICES IN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND TRAINING PROGRAMMES BASED ON COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES, MULTIMEDIA AND ELEARNING

Summary/Abstract: The professional development and training programmes, which are implemented according to the legal provisions in force in the education area, using communication infrastructures and the eLearning environment, can be postgraduate programmes and/or programmes reaching to the teaching staff in the undergraduate education system. A programme can develop specific competences for a study area and/or common (transversal) competences in using modern teaching/evaluation tools, pedagogy / learning psychology and /or management of education processes in the context of globalization and world economic crisis. Recent studies show that programmes that cover common competences, in the most cases, have a greater positive impact on the future performance of the participants than programmes aiming to develop specific competences. In this context, communication, multimedia and project management are common competences that are complementing the specific competences of the teaching staff and, in the same time, allow education institutions to organise flexible professional development and training programmes, carried out at distance partially or totally and approach busy persons or persons interested in extending and/ or developing their professional competences in general or specific areas of activity.
