Embedded systems are applied in various products and the demand for them is very high;however, there is a very serious shortage of embedded system engineers in Japan. The promotion of human resource development is pressing need in the embedded system engineering. We have developed an e-learning system for embedded system engineering education and designed a curriculum based on this e-learning system. This educational system has some effective materials for promoting self-learning at home, including a remote practice system and an online hardware description language (HDL) design check system. We conducted some training courses using this educational system and evaluated the results.
