The GUIDE Workshop 2010 New Challenges for E-learning in cultural, scientific and socio-economic development organized in collaboration with the Università degli Studi Marconi will offer a general view of the current opportunities coming from the inclusion of digital technologies in the educational and professional sector.

Academic and professional training can play an important role in responding to the current global and economic crisis on the one hand and to meet the increasing need for large scale education on the other. A closer relationship between educational programs and local development can contribute to ensure compliance with the changing labour and social landscape, enhancing the countries development and competitiveness.

The Workshop themes cover many aspects of distance and lifelong learning, including vocational guidance and professional re-training, the role of instructional technology in scientific subjects implementation and the improvement of teachers and universities capacity building in developing countries.
