Blended learning in action A programme of blended learning helped the Local Government Association (LGA) improve the way that local authorities published and used data. The online learning ensures that the knowledge is easily accessible to everyone. Deploying eLearning on native mobile applications has helped the DataLab project in Tanzania reach even those in the remotest parts of the country. Expert masterclasses provided to syngenta enabled them to confidently publish high quality open data according to the latest standards. A tailored set of masterclasses and remote mentoring helped the Mexican Government's data squads project publish 110 datasets in just 42 days.

This course will change you. But probably not in any way that you can imagine before taking it. You will lose yourself, You will find yourself. You will become a new self.
