<p dir="ltr">Dear Maria,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thank you for getting in touch. It's great to hear that you will introduce UN experts to QGIS!</p>
<p dir="ltr">Let me forward your request for support to the PSC because many people have been much more involved in creating the training manual and discussing education efforts [0] than I have been.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I'll be happy to help where I can but most of my support effort goes into <a href="http://gis.stackexchange.com">gis.stackexchange.com</a> rather than localized platforms which might not appear on Google search results when users are looking for answers.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Best wishes<br>
Anita</p>

Subject: QGIS Tutorial<br>
<br>
Dear Anita<br>
I asked colleagues and students of mine to use and revise your tutorial in preparation of suggesting the tutorial to UN staff who is involved in the migration to Open Source.<br>
They found it excellent, detailed and rich. Thanks for suggesting it on the GeoForAll UN Training Web Page!<br>
<br>
Now we are starting in a month or two (at most september) a first experimental period in which we want to "work" with UN staff who will try to use the self-explaining tutorials by themselves but having some remote tutors they can ask when they have doubts.<br>
<br>
The first software are QGIS, PostGIS and Geonode.<br>
I wonder wheter you can be a volunteer tutor for your QGIS tutorial, contributing to the blog and forum and answering questions.<br>
<br>
Alberta and I (Alberta, in CC, is a collegue of mine at PoliMI) will create a virtual class with UN staff as students and G4A and other people as tutors.<br>
Are you able to help us? If not, can you suggest us another person?<br>
We will send the people who will part of this experiment some instructions to be able to "work" in the educational Politecnico platform, which is Beep.<br>
<br>
Many thanks and best regards!!<br>
Maria<br>
<br>
<br>
P.S. Anita, dear, I'm contacting you as member of QGIS PSC. If you are not the right person, please forward my email to who can help me.<br>
