Teknowhow – is about connecting the links-to-Learning (LTL) Community to creative, engaging web-based technologies and community eLearning capability.

The Project Aims – Focus on capability building on 3 levels:

* eLeaders capacity building – via our network of LTL regional group leaders driving eLearning within their region

* Partnership building – Connecting with local eLearning/technology capability and expertise (eg Community Technology Centres Association NSW)

* Skills building – 90 LTL projects across NSW that involve youth community workers and disengaged young people.

Partnerships & Connections
