This sounds like a fantastic project. Thank you Charles for agreeing to lead it and thank you WMUK for agreeing to support it. I have a question that really applies to the whole training initiative, not just the VLE, but I'll ask it in this thread anyway. Have you given any thought to external accreditation of the courses? We have some good relationships with several universities and could approach them about providing such accreditation (I'm not talking about a degree in Wikipedia, just a certificate with the university's logo next to ours). This is something that I've been thinking about for a while, and someone else mentioned the same idea at the London meetup last weekend, so I figured it is probably a good enough idea to be worth mentioning. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
