A majority of Europeans with disabilities (People with Disabilities-PwD ) are unemployed (ENAD figures state over 60%), because they lack a number of skills (basic ICT skills being one of them) that are needed for today's working environments. VIRGIN aims to provide a "one-stop-shop" interactive portal & learning environment based on a comprehensive multilingual portal with:a) an embedded multilingual social community (for VET centres, PwD, ICT training centres, etc.), using the latest social media, facilitating interactive information sharing, interoperability and collaboration, with access to all;b) an accessible (WCAG 2.0) multilingual Web 2.0 online learning environment for PwD, their trainers, with an interactive and vast repository of interoperable SCORM compliant learning objects (LOs) that focus on basic ICT literacy. The objective is to allow PwD to develop core skills in order to be able to enter or sustain their employment on the regular labour market, enriched with intuitive mobile Java and Flash Lite based mobile and internet/PC based educational/serious games;The final outcome will be an entire set of applications and services that will be streamlined via a blended educational and pedagogical framework, making full usage of the interaction possibilities offered by web 2.0, and localised, tested, piloted and subsequently fine-tuned with GR, BE, LT, UK and CY end-user communities.The platform will equally act as a "one-stop-shop" for trainer organizations to find LOs they can integrate in existing learning environments and practices. The Open Source Software VIRGIN platform extensions can be easily integrated.The VIRGIN platform will thus be able to support a fully accessible and Open Source based pan-European learning network and community, bringing together key stakeholders and gatekeepers (VET, target groups, umbrella organizations), while offering a vast set of reusable (PC and Mobile) LOs, supported by Web 2.0 social services.
