·        To train 2 persons to serve as technical staff to maintain equipment in IECs.

 

 

·        In order to reduce on costs, technical staff that will maintain equipment in IEC is not trained in the frame the project. Substitution for staff are students involved in this project who volunteered to maintain equipment in IECs. This is more beneficial for the project in terms of sustainability.
 

 

·        To train 10 adults and 20 young people per country how to use ICT and how to participate in on-line collaborative projects.

Therefore, in the middle of January number of trained adults/youth was approximately 100, with a tendency this number to be increased.
