As you may be aware, Wikimedia UK is hosting a Train the Trainers workshop just before Wikimania for international Wikimedia affiliates representatives. The targeted attendees are someone that's coming to London for this year Wikimania, from a chapter or thematic organisation that is either already offering or planning to offer Wikimedia training in their respective countries. It will be a chance to see our course in action and experience what our volunteers go for. The aim is to filter down the messages and to take any lessons back home especially if you may offer your own Training the Trainers for your own volunteers.
More information and registration is at <
https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/civicrm/event/info?id=68&reset=1>. Wikimedia UK will pay for the training, the venue, and lunch and refreshments during the two day. Wikimedia UK will unfortunately be unlikely to be able to support accommodation. The course will be held in English. There are 12 places available on the course. The deadline to apply for a place is Sunday 15 June 23:59 BST, after which confirmation of places will be given.
Hope to see many of you in London in August,
Katie
