Abstract

In this chapter, results of European studies and projects coordinated also by authors i.e. ARIEL (Analysing and Reporting on the Implementation of Electronic Learning in Europe) and SIMPEL are presented showing that IT-based online learning activities in companies often face a series of problems. Secondly, some issues related to the design of new working environments are presented, particularly the aspect of learning in new working environments. This is followed by a presentation of the concept of Communities of Practice (CoPs) as an interesting approach to cooperative learning by using online methods, particularly based on Web 2.0. The concept of Cluster is also presented. In the final section, some conclusions are presented.
