The online teacher training program, which was designed, developed and offered by the DAISSy research team of the HOU has been completed. The program was delivered in the context of the Erasmus+ research project RE-EDUCO (REthinking EDUcation COmpetencies. Εxpertise, best practices and teaching in Digital Era). The training of teachers lasted from 18/10 to 8/11/2021 with the participation of 655 people from all partner countries. Participations from Greece reached an impressive for the size of the project number of 540. Four 2-hour sessions were held that focused on the following topics:

• Student Centred Learning Techniques
• Peer Assisted Learning Strategies
• Technology Enhanced Assessment
• Technology Enhanced Learning Tools
• Module Design – Carpe Diem Workshops
• Managing RPL Assessments and Portfolios

The training program was successfully completed by 214 trainees with 188 (88%) being Greeks. A prerequisite for successful completion and obtaining the corresponding certificate was the submission of a group-based assignment, in which the trainees were asked to design a lesson plan using techniques and tools they learned during the training to describe a teaching activity.

The results of the evaluation of the training program were quite positive and encouraging. Specifically, the e-learning platform, the structure and content of the program, as well as the overall learning experience were evaluated. The usability, layout, organization and ease of navigation were evaluated positively by more than 90% of the trainees who participated in the evaluation (n = 169). The answers regarding the quality, usefulness and relevance of the educational material to the work tasks of the trainees fluctuated at the same levels. Finally, in percentages that exceeded 85%, the trainees agreed that they enjoyed their participation in an interesting program that covered modern and applied topics.

We would like to thank all the RE-EDUCO project partners for their support. Most importantly, we would like to thank all the trainees of the online training program for their massive participation, smooth collaboration and constructive feedback that will allow us to improve the learning experience, quality and content of similar programs in the future.
