Bulgarian companies are set to take part in two e-learning projects run by the Coventry and Warwickshire Chamber of Commerce, the Coventry Telegraph reported.

The two projects are worth more than 500 000 pounds (over 716 000 euro) and were the result of two successful tenders from EU's lifelong learning programme, Leonardo da Vinci.

The money would allow two major projects to go ahead, the newspaper said.

The first was an international trade e-learning suite initiative which would help businesses to access online training to prepare them for trading abroad.
Partners in the projects were from Lithoania, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Slovenia, Bulgaria and the UK.

The second project was a Young European Entrepreneurs E-learning Suite, which would offer e-learning programmes to encourage young people to develop an entrepreneurial spirit.

Partners in this project were Aliter in Madrid, Virtech in Sofia, Foretagarna in Sweden, DemocenterSipe in Italy and PixeLearning in the UK.
