eTwinning is a professional network of teachers and school practitioners, initiated by the European commission, with aim to initiate collaboration among teachers and schools across EU, to develop projects and collaborate with colleagues, using ICT (Information and Communication technologies).

eTwinning started as a part of LLP, and since 2007 is a part of Erasmus+ programme of EU. In 2021, eTwinning community reached over one million registered members. In 2022, the platform has merged with SEG (School education gateway) into a new European School Education Platform.

The main benefits of the platform are:

• Teachers can organise and run on-site and online activities with their students along with colleagues from other countries.
  Learn from each other, share good practices and develop projects.
• Upskill from webinars, short and long online courses (including MOOCs), self-teaching materials, conferences, and other on-site professional development opportunities where they meet experts in many fields and improve their skills.
• Participate in in video-conferencing sessions supported by a forum and a file archives.
• Participate in eTwinning groups- virtual places where eTwinners meet and discuss specific subjects, topics, or other areas of interest.
• Share ideas, plan projects, produce materials, and learn together, on a thematic campaigns that are initiating twice per a year.
