The seminar provided an overview of LRE benefits for Associate Partners and information on the range of options for how organisations can connect to the LRE or expose their resources to school via the LRE federation. The Global Grid for Learning, OER Commons and Promethean also explained why they are currently interested in joining the LRE and becoming some of the first Associate Partners of the LRE service.
