Editor's Notes
- #8 The Moodle Educator Certification Program provides a core foundation of digital competency for teaching and learning using the Moodle Platform. The primary aim of the Moodle Educator Certification Program is to provide opportunities where educators: develop skills and digital competencies in their teaching and learning practice; design instructional resources and learning experiences with Moodle; build capacity to facilitate learning activities to reach learning goals; and connect and engage in collaborative learning experiences and activities that contribute to quality education. We’re pleased to announce the launch of the Moodle Educator Certification Program through Certified Moodle Partners on March 19, 2019.
