e-Learning Virtual Center for People with Physical Disabilities

Due to booming technology and IT phenomena, distant learning and e-employment are growing in an exponential manner. This field requires optimum production rate, which is combination of time and cost. The parameter is being the level of depth of the output detail. Considering the current globalization and market conditions and resulting competition in almost all different fields of service sectors which can all be worked out and submitted virtually, that is, worker is not necessarily be moved to job site or employee’s premises. These tasks are also strongly personal time, knowledge and effort oriented. Hence, these kinds of fields are very well suitable for “home based employment”. However, although disabled people with mobility limitation are the most suitable part of the population which confirms to this new trend from the most aspects while forming more than 10% of European population, there is not a real development targeting this group in this new field of training and employment. Hence, the philosophy of this project is the verification of employment channels where someone can talk about “an advantage of being disabled in this unique virtual business channel(s)”.AIMS: This project aims to develop/enhance a two-stage training program for computer oriented disabled people on CADD, Graphics, Web design, MS Office and establish an e-platform which will serve those people to work as a freelance, self-employed or entrepreneur from their home based offices (“virtual assistants”). This two-stage training will cover:1. Training on “how to become a virtual assistant”, that is learning the general principles of home office business and how to work as self-employed (or as “virtual assistants”) in general,2. Training on specific service fields: CADD, Graphics Design, Web design, Office (word, excel processing)The idea behind this future efforts is basically to improve the skills and competencies of computer and technical oriented disabled people to train the individual to produce better and competitive outputs in project fields which covers almost 30% of technical based services.
