Hello, 

What a great question! Thank you for that.

Yes, even though this is a self-paced course, we do provide a certificate at the end. For that, you need to make sure to complete all assignments, to watch all videos, and check (green check marks) all the pages. When completed, you will be able to download your certificate, with your name and date.

In addition, we also provide a template for a badge that you can add to your user page on Meta-Wiki. This is also at the end of the course.

If you have any questions or find any difficulties in the process, let me know and I can support you.

Best,

Giovanna

Do you receive a certificate after taking the course? I would like to take this but need something to verify it being for professional development for my job.

Hello everyone, 

A few weeks ago, we announced the course on the learning platform, WikiLearn, on how to upload and edit files on Wikimedia Commons using OpenRefine: OpenRefine for Wikimedia Commons: the basics. 

Today, we are happy to announce two translations of the course: Spanish and French!

• OpenRefine para Wikimedia Commons: conceptos básicos (Spanish / Español)
• OpenRefine pour Wikimedia Commons : les bases (French, Français)

This course can be easily translated into other languages (more about the translation process here and here). More translations, such as Italian, Portuguese, and Basque, are being worked on. 

Just like the English course, the Spanish and French versions are available at any time, for free. You only need a Wikimedia account and the course can be followed at your own pace, with computer-graded exercises. A certificate is awarded at the end and an average of 6 to 8 hours is needed to complete the course.

Please, feel free to share these translations with people who speak these languages and who you think might be interested in learning more about OpenRefine or Wikimedia Commons.

Thanks, Carla Toro and Reda Kherbouche, for their amazing work translating these courses!

Best,

Giovanna
