*Dimagi will be hosting the first CommCare Advanced Topics Workshop in
Malawi! *Applications
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1lMkXjDbkyKJqGkgEd__Gda0UuUzCWQgGRgZFyN1LJHI/viewform>
* are due Monday, October 20th. *
The workshop will focus on building participants’ ability to use Dimagi’s
CommCare
platform <http://www.commcarehq.org/> and build mobile applications for
Frontline Workers. While previous CommCare workshops have provided
participants with a general mServices overview and an introduction to
CommCare app-buildingi, this workshop’s focus will be on building on
participant's knowledge of CommCare and developing advanced technical
skills needed to deploy and maintain highly-tailored mobile programs.
Because the workshop will focus on advanced material, it will be most
beneficial for people with previous experience with CommCare. Workshop
applicants who have not previously built a CommCare application will be
asked to complete our online tutorial
<https://wiki.commcarehq.org/display/commcarepublic/Beginner+Tutorial> prior
to the workshop.
*The goals of the workshop are to:*
- Build CommCare users’ technical skills across three main areas:
- *App building skills* - including advanced technical skills.
- *Device Management *- installing, updating, and troubleshooting
applications.
- *Project Management *- utilizing reports, exports, supervision
tools, dashboards, SMS for performance improvement, etc.
- Share general best practices and lessons learned with participants
from other CommCare projects
- Foster a CommCare user community in Malawi
- Get input from users and identify new features to add to the CommCare
roadmap
