Hi all, A quick reminder that the JISC "call for tenders" closes in one week, at 12 noon on Wednesday 22nd:
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/fundingopportunities/funding_calls/2013/04/wikimedia.aspx They're looking for someone to organise and run a (funded) nine-month training and support program for academic programmes interested in engaging with Wikipedia; it's structured as a request for tenders rather than a recruitment process, allowing groups or partnerships to bid for it, but they are happy to take bids from individuals as well. "Jisc invites tenders for an individual or organisation to be the Jisc ‘Wikimedia Ambassador' and run a nine month training and coordination project for the use of Wikimedia tools and techniques for educational purposes. The purpose of the training is to disseminate skills and knowledge leading to improved coverage and accuracy of articles relating to information produced by Jisc funded programmes presented on Wikimedia projects. The purpose of the coordination project is to promote open knowledge and to increase the uptake and use of Wikimedia tools for the dissemination of academic knowledge and content." -- - Andrew Gray andrew.g...@dunelm.org.uk _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
