Who are the ILO Myanmar e-Campus courses for? Can anyone enrol?

The learning content on this platform has been designed for those eager to gain new knowledge and skills related to the world of work in Myanmar. Currently, all the courses available are open to public. You can self-enrol and access the course materials. In the future, however, some live courses may be restricted to the ILO’s key partners in Myanmar, particularly government officials and representatives of employer and worker organizations. This is due to the subject-matter of the course and logistical and financial reasons.
