Each module on the e-learning platform is divided into several chapters. Supporting documents such as a syllabus, a summary, and suggested exams are included. An instructor can gain access to the e-learning platform and can manage and use the material for teaching and training purposes.

The DESIRE project aims to raise the awareness on the socio-economic impact of renewable energy and to make the teaching materials, prepared up to EU standards, available to faculty and students in the MENA region.
