We’re really pleased to announce what we think is the first officially accredited course in understanding and using social media for those with no previous experience. We Share Stuff has developed the course and it’s now part of the OCN framework (WSS are an OCN Centre), as three units of 10 learning hours each. As it’s platform agnostic (it doesn’t prescribe certain sites or tools) and also d

Just a quick update on proceedings. As you can see, we’ve trimmed down our logo and site. The site is now a tad faster, looks cleaner and we’ve tried to explain what we do a little better too. A lot of behind the scenes stuff is happening, we’ll update on new projects as and when we get the go ahead.

The Digital Mentor bid, led by UK online centres is starting to move along quite nicely now.

Been a bit busy on all fronts with those concerned with We Share Stuff. Apart from the holidays and new born babies, things are getting back on track. The project visited the UNLTD awards event in Manchester to officially recieve their award and certificate. A decent event where other award winners spoke about their projects and plenty of networking ensued. We are currently finalising the identity and web presence fo

Not much time this morning so i’ll make it quick and we can elaborate later. The meeting with UNLTD took place on Friday 27th and was very positive and gave us some kind of timeframe in the short term. (more later!) I’ve set up a Google Apps space for the project which will allow us to manage the project a little better from now on. Anybody who comes into the project will get access to this. It’s cu
