The IEEE, the world's largest technical professional technology association, has launched the IEEE eLearning Library offering almost 200 short, online courses in core and emerging technologies.

According to the IEEE, the service "The convenient learning system delivers nearly 200 courses in core and emerging technologies, providing professionals, faculty and students across academic institutions, corporations and government agencies a better way to learn.

IEEE says its eLearning Library "offers advanced technology content only IEEE can provide'¦ [It] selects the best educational courses from IEEE conferences and workshops around the world and delivers them in engaging, instructional and interactive online courses.

IEEE says that each course was developed and peer-reviewed by subject experts and awards continuing education units (CEU) or professional development hours (PDH) upon successful completion.

"Users can choose between introductory, intermediate and advanced levels for many subjects, learn on their own schedule, and resume a course where they left off at any time. Courses range from one to three hours in length and include notes, a glossary of terms and a post-test. Topics range from smart grid and biometrics to telecommunications and green engineering."

According to Steve Welch, director of continuing education at IEEE, "IEEE eLearning Library raises the bar for all online technical learning courses'¦[It] is designed to provide professionals from industry and academia with interactive tutorials featuring new and emerging technologies. Our extensive peer-review process ensures that each tutorial meets the high IEEE standard for quality and accuracy."

IEEE says it offers flexible subscriptions for any size organisation, including academic consortia. Details at www.ieee.org/go/elearning.
