The two programmes will run alongside each other and there will be opportunities for collaborative working between the two programmes will be actively encouraged through the Support and Synthesis project.

To support the projects within these programmes and synthesise and disseminate the outcomes of these projects to the wider community, a Support and Synthesis project has been established which brings together a wide range of partners in one of the most ambitious and innovative support ventures for the e-Learning Programme.

The project will provide support in a variety of forms, tailored to specific needs and including the hosting of a community web resource, specialist advice and guidance and facilitation of staff development though workshops. The project will also carry out ongoing research and synthesis of resources across the further and higher education sector to provide support materials and recommendations for the projects and for the wider community.

The project will be delivered under a collaborative arrangement involving a number of JISC Services and partner organisations. JISC infoNet is co-ordinating the support project, working closely with the JISC Programme Managers. The full list of partners is currently:
