The objective of the iLearning Awards is to celebrate the achievements of organisations who have demonstrated a clear vision of learning as being a process embedded in every moment and activity of an organisation’s life. The iLearning Awards recognise organisations for which learning is not a series of discrete events but a continuous process, involving individual and organisational learning, formal and informal learning. Learning is life! summarises the vision of ilearning.

Each Award celebrates a particular aspect of integrated learning. You can submit under the following categories:

• - iLearning organisation
• - iLearning provider
• - iLearning futures
• - ilearning quality
• - iLearning access

The Awards do not celebrate individual courses or resources—there are other Awards for these—but a holistic approach to learning within an organisation or a community.

The laureates will benefit from an international campaign to promote their achievements and they will be invited to join the programme committee for next year’s Awards.

Small and medium organisations as well as consortia and large organisations, private or public can apply for the awards. Judges will take into account the size of the organisation when shortlisting the entries, so SMEs compete equally with large corporations.
