As part of my work as a MediaWiki consultant, I provide MediaWiki training courses.
The training courses can be tailored to you or your organisation’s needs, with the focus on whichever aspect of MediaWiki you require. Example courses may be an introductory course to MediaWiki, explaining how to add and edit content in your wiki, or more advanced MediaWiki training for web designers or web developers looking to learn how to customise the software themselves.
