INTRODUCTION As part of the E-LASTIC project, this course is addressed to those responsible for HR and training and it aims at acquiring the necessary knowledge to use learning and information materials through the autonomous development and publishing of contents on an online platform. Learn then thanks some simple functions to create a learning route through the CMS (content management system) developed for the E-LASTIC platform. The training route -as followed-is at your availability to create courses and constantly enrich their contents through the real-time updating of learning materials. In this regard you'll find some guides, summarizing slides and tutorials completely devoted to the use of on screen functions. 2

The e-lastic project consists of self-learning courses for companies within the automotive field, developed and supplied through an on web platform 3

this Platform as global OUTPUT of the project becomes a real PORTAL devoted to training and learning 4

in this regard we remind that: to be successful, all portals should be constantly updated to make "live" their subjects in our case chosen topics for companies within the automotive field 5

to make all this successful, that is to say to make our website always updated we need to learn how to use part of the platform's software called CMS (Content Management System) an input system of the platform to implement, edit, add, change, etc, educational and information contents 6

before entering the CMS, however, let's summarize the main methodological idea of our platform 7

through our platform students don't study in front of a video but learn basics, which will be (later) studied thanks to the educational materials "downloaded" from the net 8

Sintesys students use PC first through its normal functions of "entertainment" and then as quick, detailed and economical"carrier" of information 9
