The paper deals with the model of eLearning evaluation process, specifically with a proposal of methods and means for eLearning project evaluation. There are many approaches to eLearning projects evaluation. Let us consider eLearning as an educational project. An educational project, just like other projects, is comprised of design phases, proceeding one after another and interrelating. An eLearning project passes through several phases of its development: from planning through the development of study supports and the pilot stage, to usage of project results in instruction, namely in distance learning. eLearning project can be evaluated during each of its phase and as a whole project as well. It means for each phase of the project we have to collect reliable information to determine criteria of the phase quality. After evaluation of the phase we define feedback as a response to the results of performed analysis.
