    In March 2020, the Covid-19 crisis hit the Vocational Education and Training (VET) of the GIP-FCIP of the académie de Créteil and of his GRETA VET centers. Distance education was not any longer an option but the only possible teaching method. This shift to e-learning highlighted the major issue of accessibility, both digital and pedagogical, hitting the most vulnerable trainees and jeopardizing our inclusive pedagogical approach and therefore our trainees’ chances to professional integration and social inclusion.In this new context, the GIP-FCIP of the académie of Créteil and the GRETA VET network is facing 2 major issues :• How can distance learning become as accessible as possible, with appropriate tools and relevant training paths to ensure the inclusion of all learners ?• How can the educational teams be trained to distance education to allow a true efficient and inclusive pedagogical method ?These issues are beyond the frame of our national VET organization and the GIP-FCIP of the académie de Créteil has formed a transnational strategic partnership with 4 other education and VET organizations : Koena, a French partner dedicated to digital accessibility and inclusion of people with disabilities ; the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) in Spain specialized in pedagogical accessibility ;the European Certification and Qualification Association (ECQA) based in Austria,and a Canadian partner the Université TÉLUQ based in Québec and specialized in distance education for more than 40 years.In the frame of an Erasmus+ program (KA2) for innovative practices in a digital era and social inclusion, our partnership has gathered 14 people to design and carry out the IDE@ project : “Implementing a Digital E-learning @lternative”, gathering 4 VET project leaders, 6 higher education teachers, 2 VET and disabilities specialists, and 2 certification and qualification project leaders.The IDE@ project is based on 3 specific Erasmus+ KA2 program VET priorities :• Supporting the uptake of innovative approaches and digital technologies for teaching and learning• Further strengthening key competences in initial and continuing VET• Initial and continuous professional development of VET teachers, trainers and mentors in both school and work-based settings The IDE@ project aims to set up an inclusive, drop-out proof distance vocational training dedicated to VET centers and trainers having to adapt to distance education with all profiles learners.In order to reach this general objective, the project will be carried out according to the following pragmatic methodology over 5 phases :- identification of the obstacles to ensure accessibility to distance training - identification of the teaching skills to be deployed- observation of successful distance learning experiences- implementation and dissemination of efficient training engineering- creation of a certification framework for trainersThe project will develop 5 tools in the field of distance VET : - A good practice guide to ensure digital accessibility for all learners ;- A pedagogical guide to set up distance learning accessibility for all learners ;- A competencies' framework to map the competencies of trainers needed for the design and implementation of distance learning accessible from both a digital and pedagogical point of view- A distance education engineering for trainers ;- A certification framework for distance teaching skills.The expected impact of the project concerns 3 circles of target groups:- trainers to help them adapt to distance training- trainees to enable them to access and successfully achieve a distance training- all audiences of the project partners and stakeholdersMajor planned impacts are :increase the capacity of the VET Professionnals to provide quality inclusive online trainingprovide better quality training to maintain beneficiary engagement and avoid dropping outtrain, qualify and certify the trainers in digital and pedagogical accessibility for online training.diversify the trainee target audience due to quality inclusive online trainingIDE@ aims to about 10 000 VET professionnals (trainers and organizations).
