One type of assistance that is being provided in relation to e-learning development within the Center of Environment and Forestry Education and Training (CEFET) and the Environment and Forestry Education and Training Center (BDLHK) by FORCLIME and Common Sense are digital literacy assessments of CEFET and BDLHK employees. In this regard, a survey was undertaken in June 2022 with target respondents representing widyaiswara (trainers), structural officials, functional employees of Learning Technology Developers, Learning Management System (LMS) admins and admins of training providers. The purpose of the survey was the measurement of respondents’ digital competence as regards the implementation of their duties in relation to eLearning development. On 6 July 2022, an online workshop was held in order to present the results of this digital literacy assessment.

The meeting was opened by the Head of CEFET, Mrs. Dr. Ir. Kusdamayanti, M.Si., who stated that the eLearning development cooperation with FORCLIME and several other institutions that was initiated back in 2014 has provided many benefits, particularly in relation to the ongoing pandemic, and has meant that CEFET has been able to continue to perform its duties in relation to human resources development activities through processes of eLearning. The CEFET eLearning team, represented by Mr. Erfan Noor Yulian, then delivered a presentation that addressed the most recent updates on eLearning conditions, including the various challenges and obstacles that are being experienced.

The main session of the workshop comprised a presentation of the assessment results, which was delivered by Mr. Wahyu Supartono from Common Sense. Based on the assessment results, the Common Sense team has offered a number of recommendations in relation to the following areas:
1) List of training required by each target group.
2) Workflow for the implementation of training through eLearning
3) Tools that can be used to maximize eLearning, including authoring tools such as Articulate Rise and Adapt, as well as video tools such as Vyond.
4) Development of the Content Creation Team unit and staff regeneration in relation to several positions.
5) Hardware and software capable of supporting eLearning programmes.

In addition, LMS maintenance is also expected to be further improved through the addition of staff responsible for the Learning Management System.
