Experience Capitalization for Continuous Learning

Experience capitalization is a systematic, interactive and participatory process through which an experience is analysed and documented, leading to the creation of knowledge (for example good practices or lessons learned), which can be shared and used to generate change.

This course introduces the methodology and process of experience capitalization. It gives you guidance and tools to help you plan and implement your own experience capitalization process, and ensure its efficiency and effectiveness.
