TIG will be contributing to this global project by creating an online community platform where participants and local stakeholders can engage through a simple, well-animated social network. TIG will design, develop and launch online EQWIP HUB portal pages that showcase the activities and outcomes of individual locations throughout the project. This platform will also provide support to the delivery of in-person training through the blended learning offerings. By leveraging a customized TIGed learning platform youth will be able to access online learning modules while digital badges, pre and post surveys and mobile monitoring tools will be employed to track the implementation and outcomes of the EQWIP HUB programming. http://www.outside-in.idrc.ocadu.ca Outside-IN helps young people become accessible media specialists. Led by OCAD University's Inclusive Design Research Centre, the program is specifically designed for youth with invisible and episodic disabilities. A flexible and accessible learning space was created using our online classrooms. The program was promoted through our website and an Outside- IN promotional website that we created. The skills of participants are highlighted in an online badge portfolio.
