         <description>This international conference will gather civil society organisations from the EU and neighbouring countries, donors active in the region as well as the EU and national governments' officials. Following the recent conference in Ljubljana on 'Development of civil dialogue and partnership relations between civil society, national governments and EU institutions' which resulted in the adoption of the Ljubljana declaration, this conference has been organised by the partners to focus on surveys carried out at the national level in the countries of the Western Balkans and Eastern Europe on the implementation of the Partnership Principle (EU, National Governments, CSOs). There will be no fee charged for participants, but they will be expected to cover their own travel and subsistence costs.</description>

         <link>http://www.elearningage.co.uk/convertingtoelearning.aspx</link>
         <description>Converting your traditional training courses to digital versions can save your organisation time, effort and money. By converting to e-learning learners can engage within their own office or base and work more effectively within their own unique learning style. It also saves time, money and is much more environmentally friendly. But taking the plunge can be a bit daunting. This one day, interactive workshop will show you how you can create digital materials that WOW your learners and have that vital seal of approval from your trainers. You will also learn about best practice and discover useful tips, as well as the Do's and Don'ts of creative effective e-learning. Featuring case studies from the National Trust and Deloittes.</description>
