Hi all,
Wikimedia UK is running another of its Train the Trainers workshop. This will take place on the weekend of *1-2 November in Edinburgh*, and we would particularly encourage anyone from Scotland and the north of England to attend.
The workshop will be delivered by a professional training company and aims to improve delegates’ abilities to deliver any training workshop. It’s especially relevant to anybody who already runs Wikimedia-related training, or is very interested in doing so in near future.
The workshop is a chance to:
- Get accredited and receive detailed feedback about your presenting and training skills - Get general trainer skills which you can then apply when e.g. delivering specific Wikipedia workshops - Share your skills with others - Help design a training programme that serves Wikimedia UK in the long term.
The course will run from 9:30 am-6:30pm on Saturday and 9am-5pm on Sunday. A light breakfast and lunch will be provided. We should also be able to cover travel and accommodation if you let us know in advance.
If you are interested in attending, please indicate your commitment by registering on this page https://donate.wikimedia.org.uk/civicrm/event/info?id=117&reset=1 but please note that places are limited.
If you are not able to attend this time but would like to take part in the future, please let us know by email to volunteering@wikimedia.org.uk – we will be offering more sessions in the future.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. We can also put you in touch with past participants who will be able to share their experiences with you.
Katie
