Digital ExTra stands for Digital Exhibition Training.

The Digital ExTra project is funded by European Commission through the Leanardo da Vinci program. It is based upon the transfer of innovation of studies carried out within the eTEN funded project ECMADE http://www.ecmade.net/ The Digital ExTra project has its starting point in the needs of small and medium-sized museums and archives for creating digital exhibitions on the internet and addresses the main reasons for a lack of cultural heritage related eContent being produced today.

• A lack of sector specific training opportunities for personnel within the ALM, VET and in cultural heritage tourism and ICT/media sectors.
• The economic barriers for the production of digital material.
• A lack of synergy between the needs of the cultural sectors and the knowledge of the ICT media sector.
