Session title: Tips & Tricks for Programs & Events Dashboard

Session type: Demonstration

Track: Contributor/Community Engagement

Language: en

The Programs & Events (P&E) Dashboard (https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/) allows organizers to effectively train participants in their programs and events, monitor the work participants do on Wikimedia wikis, and assess their contributions. It also allows them to report metrics on what the participants have done.

In this workshop we will teach participants how to use the P&E Dashboard, taking them from the basic steps of getting started, through advanced tips and tools. We will also provide tips on customizing things to support their individual programs.
