Working Group

The Learning Materials and Documentation Working Group's goal is developing open source training material (licensed as specified by the Hyperledger Charter) to educate people interested in expanding their knowledge of Hyperledger and its projects. The working group will consult with other Hyperledger working groups, Hyperledger team members, and the project maintainers to identify training needs and develop strategies, as well as, material to address those needs. The output of this working group will be targeted towards both technical and non-technical audiences.

The plan is to have each framework and tool supply a technical chapter that will be  incorporated into the Higher- level course.Git Hub Updates: The group needs direction in  this area.
