This is beautiful. Nice to see Open edX in use. Feels like incentive to package a range of workshops and materials up in a reusable and discoverable way! Open to WikiEdu + other community courses also?

The platform will host courses developed by Wikimedia Foundation teams on a variety of topics relevant to doing Wikimedia work. The intended audience of the platform is Wikimedia contributors of all kinds, and all you need to access the platform is your existing Wikimedia account. As we continue to evolve some governance mechanisms for the platform, it will become open for contribution from all Wikimedia contributors.
You can access the platform at learn.wiki https://learn.wiki/
The courses currently available from the Community Development team are:
Introduction to Building Partnerships - This course will provide an in-depth curriculum on how to develop meaningful programmatic and organizational partnerships within the movement and with external partners.
Addressing Harassment Online - This short, introductory course will focus on developing skills that will help volunteers empathetically respond to online harassment.
These courses are self-paced and graded by the original instructors of the live course. A computer graded version of these courses will be available shortly. The current courses are published in English with potential translation possible in FY 22-23
Please note that the self-paced/human-graded format will return marked assignments on a bi-weekly/monthly basis depending on capacity.
Each course has been adapted from its original live format to be suitable for self-paced study. The Identifying and Addressing Harassment course was authored and taught by Simona Ramkisson https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:SRamkisson_(WMF). The Introduction to Partnership Building course was authored and taught by Asaf Bartov https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Asaf_(WMF).
All Wikimedians with an active Wikimedia account can login to the WikiLearn platform using their Wikimedia identity (OAuth) without needing a separate account.
If you have any questions or concerns about the courses or the learning management system Open edX https://www.edx.org/?g_acctid=724-505-4034&g_campaign=gs-b2c-us-brand-core-roas&g_campaignid=16772388216&g_adgroupid=140810411408&g_adid=562435444795&g_keyword=edx&g_keywordid=kwd-89882436&g_network=g&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=gs-b2c-us-brand-core-roas&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=edx&hsa_acc=7245054034&hsa_cam=16772388216&hsa_grp=140810411408&hsa_ad=562435444795&hsa_src=g&hsa_tgt=kwd-89882436&hsa_kw=edx&hsa_mt=e&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gclid=CjwKCAjw9LSSBhBsEiwAKtf0n1bwsYmA8VKTTsJnwIR2_8Z_BQd6S1pQWgUItNyY-gI8bRSE27LgbBoCiQYQAvD_BwE, please email the Community Development team at comdevteam@wikimedia.org
