Massive Open Online Course (MOOC): Open Data Management in Agriculture and Nutrition

This free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on Open Data Management in Agriculture and Nutrition was first created in 2016. The course was delivered 5 times between November 2017 and November 2018, reaching over 5000 people globally, before being made available for unrestricted use.

The intended audience is broad, including information professionals interested in open data research and management (including ICT specialists, STEM journalists, communications professionals and archivists), data scientists and researchers, and policy and decision makers.

The course is now available in both English and French - course materials can be accessed here: https://www.godan.info/training-courses
