Competence based joint study program on advanced networking technologies for blended learning

European Study Program for Advanced Networking Technologies (ESPANT) is a two semester study program, jointly developed by higher education institutions from Belgium, Finland, Portugal, Spain and Slovenia. It will support students in developing competences to cope with difficulties which are encountered in real world networking configurations. As this study program is designed for students from all over Europe and is run by partners from five European countries, it has to be implemented by means of blended learning activities, i.e. as a combination of traditional face-to-face instruction with student and staff mobility as well as independent learning in virtual learning environment, implemented by means of information and communication technology.
