Want Wikipedia or Wikimedia training?
If you are interested in a training session for your community or workplace, please contact the office. Keep an eye on the events calendar and Wikimedia UK's Twitter feed; there may already be a training event in your area that you can ask to join.
We are especially keen to work:
- with scholarly societies and charities
- with universities, schools and education-sector bodies
- across the whole of the UK
- with community groups including local history groups, conservation groups or "silver surfers"
So if you are an individual interested in a training event, talk to friends, colleagues or students as well as registering your own interest.
Want to train others?
The for trainers section of this site includes session plans, materials, advice on training methods and details of past events.
If you see an event in the calendar that you'd like to help with, get in touch with Wikimedia UK's contact person for the event.

We have an ongoing Training the Trainers programme for our volunteers. Any upcoming events will be listed on the Events page. You can register your interest by emailing daria.cybulska

Want to improve Wikipedia or Wikimedia?
Anyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia or its sister projects straight away, and there are resources to help you start. We provide Markup guides/cheat sheets, Wikipedia Guides, guidance for Commons, and more.
