Summary
AdeleRS Project responds in an absolutely adequate way with an innovative solution in the field of VET by developing a homogeneous solution, called the AdeleRS System, which integrates the most advanced technologies for e-Learning with the most transversal ones aimed at e-Work, thus creating an intelligent environment that we can define as "Smart Learning-Working", a name attributed by the Partnership also to the paradigm assumed as a reference. To this transversal objective, the Project adds a more specific goal that applies the AdeleRS System to the specialization of a particular and interesting target of users: the graduates in the Restoration, Conservation and Enhancement of Cultural Heritage Sector in order to fill the gap in knowledge and sectoral skills that these graduates face when leaving university in relation to the needs of the sector, so as to consolidate their employability, also in the transnational and international dimension.
In this way AdeleRS responds to the specialization needs of the users of the Project - Graduates in Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage - with its own solutions: the consolidation of the professional skills and knowledge and digital skills of this target; the establishment of a large community of specialized practice at a European level; a wide and highly specialized training offer; a training strategy that can also encourage the acquisition of strong transversal digital skills and professionalizing language learning."
The AdeleRS Project responds to two specific european and national priorities of the Programme:
- Address digital transformation through the development of digital readiness, resilience, and capacity (horizontal priority).
- Contributing to innovation in vocational education and training (specific priority for the VET).

- A database of wiki-page that will feed the subsystem WikiAdeleRS.
- A set of Books, Manuals, Dispenses all in eBook format, which represents the initial content of the eLiber.

3. works in Paper Material
These three courses will be provided to graduates in discipline such as:
