A number of research institutions have already expressed their intent to participate in PROLEARN activities and to align their research activities with the PROLEARN research agenda. Strong US and Canadian partners have done the same, showing the potential of a strong network in technology enhanced learning not only on the European level, but world wide.

Furthermore, integration and interaction with industrial partners will be an important aspect of the PROLEARN network. While a growing number of industrial partners will directly participate in work carried out in the various work packages, others will benefit from the results and information spread by the PROLEARN Academy and Competence Centre. Some of the benefits for industrial partners of joining PROLEARN are:
