The sample of this particular research consisted of 162 teachers who at that time worked in schools of Primary Education in Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. The findings of the present research showed that the teachers improved their skills sufficiently, whereas there was a partial satisfaction derived from the trainers’ methods in the programmes, as well as a lower satisfaction concerning the organisational structure of those programmes. Furthermore, younger teachers and those that had experience in the use of ICT or had previously had a training of long duration appeared to have a more positive attitude towards the growth of skills and the use of ICT, as well as the organisation of training.
