Abstract

RentWise is a comprehensive curriculum taught in one-on-one or group settings to those who would benefit from education and skills to become successful renters This poster will describe the use of Moodle to host the RentWise Facilitator Website including curriculum, a community of practice and evaluation tools for those completing train-the-trainer workshops. The platform provides the ability for facilitators to access and print materials for their workshops, to share ideas and best practices related to their programs, as well as access a Qualtrics evaluation link to create customized reports and generate participant certificates.
