Our project aimed to promote the use of ICT in combination with soft skills techniques in the adult learning focusing on ICT tools for distance learning, on the basis of exchanging good practices between the partners and in response to the priorities of the Programme. The main objective of this partnership was to develop an educational guide for a course with a focus on Soft skills for adults in order to bring them back to the labour market. The proposed course is based on good distance learning and teaching practices and is the outcome of the combination of methodologies deriving from the multidisciplinary approach of the members of the partnership as well as from the experience gained during the teaching in the various participating countries.
