Are you a teacher or trainer in the Australian vocational education and training (VET) sector?

Do you use the LORN online portal to access the latest in education and training resources?

The Australian Flexible Learning Framework (Framework) is inviting feedback on the experiences of LORN users through the completion of a short online survey.

The results of the survey will help inform LORN’s future development needs to ensure it remains an effective, easy to use gateway to online training resources.

LORN Business Manager, Kim Edgar, said the portal has been continually enhanced over the years to ensure it remains a quality, user friendly service.

She said that the enhanced search functionality and the My LORN feature had been very popular additions and that she was looking forward to hearing about additional suggestions for further improvements.

The survey will open on Wednesday 7 July and close on Saturday 7 August.

LORN provides a one-stop-shop for practitioners and training providers to find and download more than 2,500 free or for cost learning objects from collections across Australia, including the Toolbox Repository.
