Thanks so much for the feedback, Monica! I look forward to getting more detailed feedback as you have time to go through it.

At this point, we have no plans to translate it, as English is the language of reports, trainings, and other materials for program leaders in our movement (who this training is aimed at) -- but that being said, certainly anyone who wants to translate it is welcome to! Especially for some of the languages spoken in many countries like Spanish, it might be very useful to have it in both languages.

Thanks for putting this together, it's an awesome resource.  Recently I had the opportunity to give a workshop in an public engineering university in Panama to professors on how to design a Wikipedia based assignment for their course. It was my first experience of this kind and I am sure I can improve things for future editions with the help of this resource.  I will go through it and leave any feedback if necessary.

Are there plans to translate it?

Hi all!

For the last few months, I've been working on an online training that covers the basics of starting an education program. I'm pleased to say it's finally live, thanks to the great wiki coding skills of Sage Ross.

* For those interested in starting a program, I'd *LOVE* for you to go through the training. It will walk you through actually creating an on-wiki program plan and offer advice based on the most common questions I've heard from skype calls with people starting programs over the last three years. But I may have missed things -- if there are still questions you have, I'd love to hear what they are! If there are confusing places, I'd love to hear where those are, too. If there's things that were specifically useful, I'd also love to hear that.

* For those experienced program leaders, I'd love any feedback or suggestions of things you've learned that aren't already incorporated in the content of the training.

Here's the link to starting the training:

And here's all the content of the training on one page, which might be easier to edit:

I'd love feedback on list or on the talk page of the second link (the edit view one).

Thanks!
LiAnna
