UN Women HQ VSS Portal

​UN Women HQ - Virtual Skill School Portal

The UN Women's Virtual Skills School (VSS) initiative is an innovative approach to skills acquisition and education to support the 2030 Agenda through an open platform with diverse learning paths on gender equity. The VSS will help women and girls access effective, high-quality skills development opportunities using innovative learning methods. VSS will enable young women to acquire life skills.

​CSF is conducting a proof of concept (POC) for the design and deployment of this innovative learning platform. VSS is organized by learning paths with steps to achieve the objectives of the learning path. Each step lists learning materials and available e-learning courses to that make up the learning path. Some of these courses may be managed by UN Women and some may come from other sources – content providers like Kolibri, Vodafone and Unilever. This prototype covers the technology options to manage this portal, including: learning paths, learning path steps, eLearning content management and linkages, user profiles and user learning history.
