| Now
in Spanish: IMARK E-learning Module "Management of Electronic Documents"
The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
(FAO) is pleased to announce
on behalf of the Information Management Resource Kit (IMARK) Steering Group, the
release of the Spanish language version of the IMARK E-learning module "Management
of Electronic Documents". This module deals with the
collection, archiving, management and dissemination of electronic documents and
associated images. The International Center for
Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
and the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on
Agriculture (IICA)
worked with FAO on the adaptation of the module into Spanish. This, and all IMARK
modules, are available at no-cost either through the IMARK website www.imarkgroup.org
or on CD-ROM upon request. Learners are
encouraged to register and select a course. IMARK
modules are being developed by a wide range of experts and are based on the use
of appropriate and cost-effective technologies. The modules are delivered in an
interactive self-paced learning environment, using dynamic screens and illustrated
step-by-step instructions and exercises. The modules provide learners with immediate
access to customized help, search and glossary facilities, as well as cases studies
which demonstrate real life applications of the concepts and procedures being
taught. IMARK now has over 30 partners and collaborating
institutions since its inception in 2001, and its activities are coordinated through
a Steering Group whose members are: the Association for Progressive Communications
(APC), FAO, the Agence Universitaire de la Francophonie (AUF), Inter-American
Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), the Centre de coopération internationale
en recherche agronomique pour le développement (Cirad), the Technical Centre for
Agricultural and Rural Cooperation ACP-EU (CTA) and the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). |
