This project involves the creation of a MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) on learning how to be an effective leader and good manager in humanitarian response. The course is designed as a training package for in-country, new managers in humanitarian response. It can also be used as a refresher for existing humanitarian managers and as a taster for those contemplating stepping up to management in humanitarian response. This course includes activities that focus on the practical development of essential knowledge and skills as well as their application. It is three weeks long, with each week addressing different competencies required of new humanitarian managers; • Week 1 Stepping up to management, • Week 2 Managing others • Week 3 Managing humanitarian response The course requires roughly four hours of study per week. If participants wish to document their completion of this module, they can take the end of module assessment and upon passing, will receive a personalised certificate. The OU is now working with HLA partners to deliver another iteration of the MOOC.
