About the IELA Awards


Awards Program / About the IELA Awards


The International E-Learning Awards are given each year for the best work in online learning, in two divisions: Academic and Business/Industry. All submissions are evaluated by the IELA Awards Committee, who look for a variety of attributes. These include, among others, educational soundness and effectiveness, user experience, and overall significance.

The Business Division is intended for courses and products created for organizational learning, professional development, and related purposes, and for software tools used to create products for those audiences. The Academic Division is intended for school and university courses and software used in the creation of academic courses.

2023 Business Division winners will be announced at The Learning Ideas Conference 2024, to be held in New York and online from June 12-14, 2024. Winners of the 2024 Academic Division awards will be announced at the ICL Conference in Tallinn, Estonia. Submissions for the 2024 Academic Division are currently being accepted. Please see our 2024 Awards Schedule.
