AICC PENS Specification News and Events

Several recent international activities point to the growing adoption of the PENS specification. PENS information on Learning Technology Standards Observatory CEN ("Comite Europeen de Normalisation" or European Committee for Standardization) sponsors a web site on Learning Technology standards Standards, called Learning Technology Standards Observatory. We're pleased to see PENS mentioned on this important web site as it gains additional international recognition. Call for Presentations: Paris LIFE-fest June 2006 The LIFE project is an e-Learning project funded by the European Commission (Education and Culture) and EIfEL (European Institute for E-Learning). A critical success factor for e-learning is the possibility to share, collaborate, twin, and move people and resources across Europe. The objective of this event is to present the state of the art of eLearning technologies, demonstrate and explore interoperability between eLearning solutions (LMS, authoring tools, content packaging) or/and other information systems. Organizers are interested in making available information about PENS, provided that a suitable presenter is available. Interested presenters may contact the AICC Communications Chairperson or the conference organizers.
