The electronic European Language Portfolio for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ELPBVI) is aimed at visually impaired adult users aged 16 or above. The ELPBVI adopts principles outlined in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages and at the same time considers the specific needs of target users in terms of content and navigation. The ELPBVI can be used by totally blind learners with the help of screen readers transforming text to speech as well as by partially sighted users through font enlarging facilities. The ELPBVI user can choose between five identical language versions: English, German, Greek, Bulgarian and Italian.
