Title:

Definition and Specification of the South Yorkshire e-Learning Programme (SYeLP)

Client:

Sheffield City Council

Description:

The aim of the South Yorkshire E-learning Programme (SYeLP) was to enable the South Yorkshire sub-region to radically overhaul its Information & Communication Technology (ICT) capability for education in the broadest sense - namely ‘cradle to grave’ life-long learning. The starting point was pre-16 education and the increased usage of ICT to significantly change the established approaches to such education.

Dunelm was responsible for the original conception of the SYeLP and the corresponding strategic development documentation. The recommendations made by this work were implemented under the Objective 1 programme and the SYeLP was successfully deployed.
