3. What is FELTAG?
   FELTAG is a major project in the FE and Adult Skills
   sector aimed at a new approach to developing e-
   learning and the role of technology generally in
   supporting education. Rather than a series of
   imperatives, it seeks to remove barriers to natural
   progression meaning FELTAG affects every training
   organisation who can now progress, not through new
   funding but by the removal of impediments.

4. What is the SIG?
   This Group proposes to provide a means of discussing
   the major challenges and areas for change that comes
   with the removal of barriers. It will explore the role of
   students and their teachers as change agents and their
   managers as enablers, as well as the development of
   curriculum models and methods of delivery in terms of
   format, time and place. It will do this through
   discussion, and sharing ideas and resources.
