[Schroffel, Heidi]

Also – does anyone have any information when this course may come out in 
French? I know this was planned…

Thanks again, Knut, this is very promising!  Is there a schedule of when new 
courses are planned?
I’m curious about the requirement for a clear start / end date for online 
self-paced training.  It would be great if anyone could join at any time 
(within reason) and perhaps write an exam at a set point in time, though I may 
be misunderstanding the purpose (e.g. if they include real-time coaching).

Dear Knut,

Thanks for the reminder because i had completed this course long ago
and it is only now i noticed that i had never requested for my
certificate.

Edward,
I think you staff can try this program and it is very interactive.
Wishing them all the best anyway.

Thanks Knut for the reminder

[Dhis2-users] Online Academies

[Edward Robinson]

Are there any DHIS2 MOOCs available or in planning?  One of the issues I know a 
lot of partners are having is finding the budget to send staff to attend 
academies in person.  Not as much the cost of the academy itself but the travel 
and the frequency - it's very hard to plan a project around that sort of 
schedule and staff turnover / training new staff can be a real challenge.
A distance learning system would be fantastic, particularly if official 
certification can be issued on completion.  Even if staff can be sent to a 
regional centre to write an exam after self study (such as Unisa do in South 
Africa), it would be a major cost saving and allow projects to have more staff 
certified - something I believe would benefit the community immensely.
