Working Group
The Learning Materials and Working Group 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 Learning Materials working group has maintained a core group who are dedicated to making it easy to create or find documentation that supports the community. THe Resource Library is currently expanding and is the main source for learning materials and documentation for projects. The Task Sign up / Team Members page serves as a dashboard for members to pick up some project work or sponsor a task. The newly formed USE CASE library is adding more cases in the Hyperledger community and will soon add an index. We continue to assist the Special Interest groups by supplying templates, for example, White Paper templates for Telecom and Public Sector, and Use case template for Healthcare.

- Resource Library - the LMDWG has a goal to collect community documentation and create a Resource Library to house all community documentation. The Resources Library can serve as a portal for people interested in learning more about Hyperledger or for those involved in a project to easily find documentation. This will serve as a location for community members to access templates and graphics for developing projects as well as a place to store these final documentation projects. We have completed the white paper and USE CASE template.
