Summary/Abstract: E-learning instruments in the textile field are of great relevance: textile technologies are in a continuously modernization process and their knowledge aims to promote the development of the companies. The specialists in textiles, the high school students and the young entrepreneurs are able to implement the updated knowledge by being involved in a Vocational Education and Training (VET) process. Hence, key research providers in textiles have joined with the purpose of providing modern knowledge for the world of work. These objectives have been met within the Erasmus Plus – Advan2Tex project “E-learning course for the specialists in the textile field” (2014-2016). The e-learning course envisaged is based on an e-learning platform containing 7 modules in the field of innovative textiles: “Advanced Knitting Technologies”, “Virtual prototyping of garments, 3D scanning, clothing for people with special needs”, “New method for testing textile materials”, “Standardization of textile testing” and “New sustainable textile technologies, LCA, Eco-labelling”, “Entrepreneurship” and “Innovation management”. Five European research providers have joined within the project’s partnership and have elaborated the 7 modules in all the national languages as well as in English. The represented countries are: Czech Republic (TZU), Portugal (University Minho), Romania (INCDTP and UT Iasi) and Slovenia (University Maribor).
