EADL research grants
This is a scheme organised by the Research and Development Committee of EADL. Grants are available for research projects which are considered to be of general interest to the association and its members. Researchers receiving grants from this scheme are asked to report the results of their projects at EADL conferences.

Quality guide
EADL has developed quality guidelines in order to safeguard standards and maintain and improve the quality of courses and services to ensure the credibility of distance learning. This project was supported by EU funding. The Quality Guide and the "Minimum Standards of Quality for EADL Members" were revised in 2003.
