Eduforge is a virtual collaborative learning and exploratory environment designed for the sharing of ideas, research outcomes and information about open source. It is an open access environment allowing anyone with an interest in open source software to join the community. Eduforge also provides the Open Source Learning Lab to provide training for open source practitioners through a 100% online delivery model.  Our goal is to establish innovative training networks throughout the wider education sector, both nationally and internationally. Of course, open source practitioners are heavy users of the internet to communicate, collaborate and distribute code. Online is therefore an ideal training delivery model. Our direction is to build a virtual academy that is strongly collaborative in nature. Core to our mission is to further develop both national and international connections that will support, inform and be integral to establishing open source technologies as an economic growth driver in the 21st Century.
