Access to Training Courses
Welcome to VIVAR
| Here we offer a simple but powerful tool for you to learn, but above all, to develop your competences and critical analysis skills through a digital educational process that adapts to your needs and characteristics. Through innovative programming, we do not just offer you a way to study through your smartphone, tablet device, or computer wherever and whenever you want, but a platform that will analyze your current level of knowledge and structure a learning process especially adapted to you through various difficulty levels. Thanks to the work of teachers and experts, we offer you multiple courses with high quality customizable content intended to train you, but also want you to question the society that surrounds you by developing tools that will be very useful in your personal, social, and working future. These courses cover a wide range of topics and are compatible with the official curricula of each of the user profiles. You can currently find three courses aimed at adult education, but you will find many more in the future. |
Our main goal is for you to learn, which is why we offer you two possibilities: - YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE COURSES IN THE AVAILABLE LANGUAGE YOU WANT. Without pressure, without evaluations, and without support, you will be able to access the complete contents so you can learn autonomously, at your own pace. - YOU CAN PARTICIPATE IN AN INNOVATIVE DIGITAL LEARNING SYSTEM. Here we offer the support of expert tutors, the creation of collaborative networks that allow you to learn thanks to the help of other users, to upload jobs to be evaluated, and find itineraries adapted to your needs. In short we offer you an opportunity to develop yourself, learn new things, and guide your life towards new horizons according to the objectives and priorities of the EU within the framework of the 2020 and 2027 strategies. All of this is done through a powerful and modern e-learning platform created thanks to the ERASMUS PLUS PROGRAMME. |
PRIORITY: SOCIAL INCLUSION
Through new mechanisms for inclusive education and for integration of refugees and migrant people. We believe that the educative processes should be adapted to the historic and social situation in which they are developed, helping to overcome the social crises. Furthermore, we understand that this kind of projects improve the quality of learning because not only provide knowledge to the students (European or migrants), but also tools for personal, social and work development.
PRIORITY: OPEN AND INNOVATIVE PRACTICES IN A DIGITAL ERA
This is an E-Learning Smart Educative Platform for Inclusion, able to define the specific needs of the adult people to adapt the educative pathways to them, through both synchronic and asynchronic virtual learning, also counting with in-person and blended training that can be tracked by the users.
PRIORITY: IMPROVING AND EXTENDING THE SUPPLY OF HIGH QUALITY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES TAILORED TO THE NEEDS OF INDIVIDUAL LOW-SKILLED OR LOW-QUALIFIED ADULTS.
There has been developed educative pathways for Training Adult People, adapted to the EU guidelines. These pathways are being supported by an innovative methodology that encourages adult people to improve their basic skills as a mean to actively participate in solving the European social problems.
