Yes. All webinars delivered by Moodle Academy are recorded and made available via our Youtube channel, as well as within the course for direct download, within several days of the event. 

Moodle Academy courses are not actively facilitated. You are welcome to ask questions and discuss ideas in the course forums where our Moodle Academy community will try to respond.

Moodle Academy courses are openly licensed and able to be copied and re-used.

Note that you can also purchase course backups. Find out more from:  Can I have backups of the courses to use in my own organisation?

Moodle Academy courses are only 1-3 hours long and upon completion you receive a badge. You can purchase a certificate for a small fee when you complete a program of short courses.

We offer our course 'Introduction to Moodle for Learners' as a free downloadable backup file. This course in particular is more useful to learners when it is customised to describe and show the specific Moodle installation that learners use. We encourage institutions to restore the course to their own instance of Moodle and customise it to suit their configuration and look and feel. The course backup file can be downloaded from within the 'Introduction to Moodle for Learners' course.

 Download our Guide for customising Moodle Academy course backups.

For all other Moodle Academy courses, you can purchase backups of  individual courses at a price of 750 Euros plus VAT per course. Moodle Certified Partners and Service Providers (Moodle Partners) are able to obtain free backup copies of Moodle Academy courses. If you want to do this, please get in touch with the Moodle Academy team via the moodle.com contact form.

These are not prerequisites for the Moodle Educator Certification. However, previous experience of teaching with Moodle is required. If you have not used Moodle before, you should first seek out basic training and gain a minimum twelve months practice teaching with Moodle before starting the MEC program.

If you are viewing the YouTube version, you can toggle the subtitles on or off using the CC button on the bottom, right of the video.

To view the subtitles on a downloaded video:

1. Download both the video (.mp4) file and the video transcript (.srt) file from the Moodle Academy course. 
   1. Make sure you save both the mp4 and srt file in the same folder; and 
   2. Make sure they both have the same name (except for the file extension - e.g. keep .srt and .mp4 at the end). 
2. When you play the video, if the captions don't play by default, you should be able to select the transcript file manually.
   

VLC media player is a free, open-source video player that supports subtitles and is available on all major platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS.  If the captions don't automatically display, then from the top menu select Subtitle > Add Subtitle File... > then select the Video Transcript file you downloaded. You can disable or re-enable the subtitles from the Subtitle > Sub Track menu.

If you just want to read the text without the video, you can download the .txt file and open it in any text editor.
