I think its a great idea and I like to participate.

Thanks

Hello Roger,

The course starts on the 17th of October and is then offered continuously, so you can enroll anytime you want.
How to participate:

1. Go to the landing page of the course: www.coursera.org/learn/sanitation

2. Click on the blue button on the right side saying "Enroll Now"

3. Click on "Sign Up" to create a coursera user profile. You can sign up with your e-mail adress or your facebook account. Signing up is for free and you can choose your own username and password.

Does that help? Let me know if it is not working.

Cheers,
Samuel

This is great opportunity for our African members in general and my Ethiopian colleagues in particular. So, let us know how to apply and proceed with the training.

With best regards, Tesfaye

Hi Victor,

I just took a look at that. I am sorry to inform you, that coursera had to limit access for certain countries: coursera.tumblr.com/post/74891215298/upd...lity-for-students-in

Please contact me via e-mail (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and we’ll figure out how you are still able to participate.

thanks for the information but it giving me this notification when i try to enroll "We apologize for the inconvenience. This course is not available in your region. Click here for more information."

Hello Augustino,

Our new online course on sanitation starts on October 17th. You can subscribe here for free: www.coursera.org/learn/sanitation

You can enroll anytime, as the course will be offered continuous. It is offered in English and French, with Hindi and Spanish subtitles.

Cheers,
Samuel

Dear Augustino, the course if offered in both English and French. The link I posted should lead you to the English course version, maybe you have to adjust language settings on the website you will be referred to?

hi alex,
i got the site and the i enroll but it seem like french

Hi Augustino, this is an old post dating back from January 2014 when the course was advertised. That's why it is not possible to enroll for this course anymore.
There is also an urban sanitation MOOC which will start in October but unfortunately I cannot find the link anymore...
Check out coursera's website, there are MOOC on sanitation quite regularly.
You can also look at the discussion on eawag's peak course on sustainable sanitation design in this category of the forum. The course is now finished but the videos and materials are available on utube (the link is provided in the discussion forum).

Good luck for your search and please give us a feed back if you find and decide to follow a MOCC on sanitation. It will certainly be interesting for other members of the forum.

Dear Augustino,

there is another course available to enroll on Coursera called "Water Resources Management and Policy".
It is offerd by the University of Geneva and takes 5 weeks - but it already started on August 15. It seem you might still be able to enroll.

Hope that helps,

Alex
