Özet: The increase of online education facilities with developing technology has made great contributions to education diversity and accessibility. Despite these possibilities, there are still difficulties in reaching an educational environment with high quality, accessibility and free or within the limits of cost tolerance. In particular, the collection of teachers, students and courses under a single platform have not been achieved. In addition, there is no broad-based educational environment in which educations have accreditation, can contribute to internationalization, prestige of the country and support cultural, touristic, political development of the country. In this study, it is theoretically defined an online educational environment which is thought to be a solution to these shortcomings and problems. With the defined online environment, it is planned to include those who are graduates of teaching and not active teachers, and individuals educated or experienced in various fields. It is aimed that these individuals who cannot participate in the work force but who have many unique and valuable knowledge in a specific topic make money and contribute to the country's economy by participating in the work force. In addition to these, it is envisaged as a platform where compulsory trainings to be given to the employees of various institutions can be given online. This platform will be called as “OTLP” in which the characters stand for the first characters of “Online Teaching and Learning Platform”. The opportunity to reach a quality education environment has been tried to create with national and international validity of the accredited documents such as certificates, diplomas. Compared with the other education environments, the differences are as follows. Diversity of education, quality, accessibility and validity at international level and also decreasing unemployment, increasing cultural awareness and public interest and promotion of the country. It will be able to provide services in different languages on an international level, and thus it will be possible to provide cultural services with vocational trainings especially forgotten culture of our country. This training environment is basically an environment where video streaming on the internet, live chat and interactive lessons, exams and activities are performed.
