What it does
FAO elearning Academy groups multilingual courses around agriculture, food security, fisheries, forests and related development work.
A technical question is a useful starting point here. The thematic areas separate subjects such as food losses, land tenure and greenhouse-gas accounting, so someone working on one part of a food system can find a focused course. Use the catalogue's language and course information to choose material you can apply to an existing project. The Academy also publishes guidance about its learning methods, useful for educators planning to incorporate these resources into teaching.
Most courses include a final certification test. Passing it earns an FAO digital badge that can be shared online; that completion credential should be assessed separately from any academic credit or professional licence requirement.
