• Welcome to the e-learning platform of the Global Land Tool Network (GLTN).This open-source platform gives you open-source access to courses and learning resources designed to help you understand and use a selection of our land tools. We have developed a collection of dynamic learning instruments using simple and captivating visuals, combined with audio narrations in some courses, to improve your learning experience. The platform is device friendly, meaning you can access the courses anytime and on any tablet or smartphone device, while your progress is synced using the course tracking features. The courses have been divided into modules to make it easier for you to absorb the information. Interactive tests and illustrative case studies are also part of the learning process to help you track your own progress. The learning resources include instructive videos, lectures, structured knowledge instruments and other reference materials. This is an ongoing project, and so more courses and resources will be added, over time.

      Land challenges can be properly addressed only if a broad range of actors and stakeholders work together. Our partners and  learners are, therefore, spread all over the globe. They include people from multiple sectors and disciplines, including land professions, research and training institutions, different levels of government, civil society, NGOs, grassroots and community settings, as well as a diverse range of concerned individuals.

      We trust you will enjoy this learning experience. Please feel free to send comments and feedback and join in the discussion forums. This will help us to continuously improve this e-learning platform.
