IPMWORKS e-learning modules

The IPMWORKS e-learning modules have been prepared based on successful experiences within the project network, including technical aspects of IPM strategies, farm performance or co-innovation and method for farm hub coaching, targeting both farmers and advisers. Modules on agroecosystem approach, on holistic pest management examples and on the key topic of policies are also included to frame the technical ones.

The materials that compose the modules focus on IPM technical aspects, IPM efficiency to gain sustainability, and methods for coaching farmers towards the adoption of cost-effective IPM strategies, based on both existing IPM resources and holistic management examples produced by the IPMWORKS network. These materials consist of, on the one hand, presentations reflecting the theoretical content and the selected resources for each theme, and, on the other hand, recorded videos of the lectures of these presentations.

These module packages can be adapted to national needs and local contexts, since they have been produced to be used like an interactive training catalogue. In line with this purpose, the modules are divided in short chapters, enabling the access to specific chapters according to the national needs and local contexts of the modules’ users.
