GLAM School/Topics/Curriculum

Learning about the principles and practices of contributing to the commons (Q9828451) should also be included in university studies in several domains.
Certificates and proofs may be important in some contexts.

GLAM in a curriculum[edit]
Certificates and proofs[edit]
Demonstrating what you have learned is useful for many purposes. For example, a Wikimedia trainer can prep up their knowledge of open licenses and have a certificate acknowledging that. Different kinds of contributors lack different knowledge in their skillsets. The need may be technical, or for example understanding of the workflows of a GLAM environment.
