History

Historically, ElCoP is the successor to the e-Learning Developers’ Task Force (EDTF), which was created in 2006 to develop a network of European e-learning developers involved in ANS training. This group had the tasks of developing best practices in e-learning development and a platform which would enable users to share digital learning assets. Even though EDTF finished these tasks in 2008, its members believed that there was added value in keeping a community of practice alive which would enable participants to learn from each other, to share best practices and to develop common deliverables. They suggested ElCoP. ElCoP started work in the first quarter of 2009.
