WHITE - Web for Handicap Integrated Training Environment

The WHITE project aims at improving the access of physically disabled persons, particularly blind or visually impaired, to education and training. Through the use of ICT, the project intends to enhance web-based opportunities for disabled persons in the field of education and vocational training; to increase attendance at specialised training and to define and develop a new "quality" procedure relating to education and vocational training and disabled persons. Activities will include the design and implementation of software interfaces allowing disabled persons to better access vocational training opportunities through the use of ICT; the design and development of a professional curriculum and related training modules and the implementation of a piloting phase. End results will comprise the developed training courses, curriculum and modules in addition to an international comparison on existing best practice. The primary target groups of the project are teachers, trainers and designers of training programmes in addition to physically disabled persons. Dissemination expects to involve all potential users of the end results: disabled persons, vocational training bodies and local & sectoral authorities.
