The development of Internet technology give a chance for application in all kind of humans activity include education specially for higher education in university in order to increase education quality. In this paper we will discuss about the importance of the elements which must be fulfilled when we build the online academic application with web technology which will help teaching process in university. Also we will discuss to implement open source software as foundation in order to deploy the information system with low cost without losing the performance. In the future assembling internet technology on education and training will be need in order to enhancement and distribution education quality, specially in Indonesia where has many islands separate with sea and mountain. Students and faculty will enjoy access to multiple resources from one location, delivering search results with a range of content including encyclopedia articles, multimedia, related Web sites, magazines, and much more. Enables schools to implement an online academic program. It equips schools to host online courses, conduct live and blog-style communication between faculty and students, track grades, automate test scoring, store course materials, and much more.

Nowadays, information and communication technologies are incorporating extremely rapidly to the individual's education and training. This trend lead the European academic research to focus on key terms like open distance learning or lifelong learning. In this context, there are a large number of past and actual projects and researches concerning the content, methodologies, technologies and new pedagogical challenges - all parts of so-called e- learning environments. There are a lot of achievements from this work but there is still a significant work left for the process of building a reliable and efficient learning process capable of satisfying the end user needs and meet the necessary requirements imposed by the educational organizations (content, standardization, measurement tools, ratings, etc.). This article reveals the components of an e-learning environment, the present trends in this research field and some conclusions.

The issues of consumer rights and consumer welfare are increasingly important, especially in the current economic climate in which the ability to make informed choices represents a real advantage in consumers’ daily life. In order to make their purchases with confidence, both in their country and abroad, consumers need easy access to precise information and to professional advice. Taking into account the fact that education and training are a strategic factor for a sustainable development through contribution to human capital development, within the Romania–Bulgaria Cross-Border Cooperation Program 2007–2013, the Academy of Economic Studies in Bucharest, Romania and the D. Tsenov Academy of Economics in Svisthov, Bulgaria decided to collaborate in the field “Cooperation on human resources development – joint development of skills and knowledge”, through the development of cross-border liaisons and exchanges between the two universities. Our objective is to bring up new methods of tr...

SDIs from global to local levels rely on standardization and interoperable GI services. In the GI field, factual standards are those from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). Therefore, the use and further development of OGC standards are crucial for the success of SDIs. Despite a lack of qualified personnel in OGC issues, OGC topics are rarely included in current GI

The Pacific AIDS Education and Training Center (PAETC) developed and tested over time a curriculum to meet the changed HIV/AIDS-related needs of dental health professionals. The objective of this study was to evaluate the HIV-related knowledge, attitudes/beliefs, and behaviors among the participants of a CE training course based on this curriculum, both before and six weeks after the completion of the course. The project recruited 106 participants who were dental health professionals over a ten and a half year period (1992-2003). The dental participants consisted of 79 percent dentists and 21 percent dental hygienists or dental assistants. The sample was 67 percent male, 33 percent female, 45 percent Caucasian, and 24 percent Asian. An adapted questionnaire was used before and after the training to assess the educational needs of the participants and evaluate the success of the program in meeting those needs. Approximately 81 percent of the participants completed both questionnaires...

ABSTRACT Due to shorter innovation cycles, increasing competitive pressure and the need for more flexibility in an uncertain business environment, we need more efficiency and effectiveness in education and training. Computers provide an added degree of freedom that can be used both within and external to traditional classroom environments, and that can be coupled with new as well as “tried and true” structures and techniques. This paper presents first results of a survey of Austrian and German enterprises and universities as part of an extended research program

Plastic, reconstructive, and cosmetic surgery refers to a variety of operations performed in order to repair or restore body parts to look normal or to enhance a certain structure or anatomy that is already normal. Several ethical considerations such as a patient’s right for autonomy, informed consent, beneficence, and nonmalfeasance need to be given careful consideration. The principal objective of

1. Why is it difficult to challenge oppression in your clinical practice personal lives, and community? 2. What steps are you taking to actively disrupt the cycle of oppression to reduce micro aggression in your clinical work and in your life?3. Do you actively develop friendships with people who don’t share your social identities to unearth stereotypes and to become aware of unconscious prejudice?

In the course of clinical and forensic work, psychologists sometimes discover serious weaknesses in knowledge, performance, or ethics in other psychologists' work. The ethical code of the American Psychological Association mandates confronting such a psychologist prior to making a professional complaint. This mandatory confrontation typically is omitted because of a sense of awkwardness or a fear of insulting the other psychologist. Education and training in psychology does not cover this sensitive and important area. In this article, sample templates of letters are provided to meet that ethical requirement and to begin to resolve problem behaviors by colleagues.

This paper discusses the strategies and factors that are critical for IMS implementation. The IMS strategies cover the possible ways and approaches for management systems integration. There are two ways of integrating the management systems which are consecutive implementation of management systems followed by integration and integrate the management systems simultaneously from the beginning. Several approaches that can be applied as a basis for integrating the management systems are include the standard approach, systems approach, Total Quality approach, and Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach. Meanwhile, the critical success factors for IMS implementation can be categorized as management commitment and leadership, resources management, focus on stakeholder s, education and training, performance measurement, systems and processes, and continual improvement.
