The CNM Cyber Welcome Course (or, simply, Welcome Course; formerly known as CNM Cyber Welcome Session; hereinafter, the Course) is a set of learning activities designed to onboard potential customers to the CNM Cyber's managed learning environment. The Course serves as the prerequisite to both the CNM Cyber Team and WorldOpp Fellow Staff designed to onboard its future staff members.

Currently, the Course is published at CNM Cert; however, its first activity shall be also available at CNM Page when that content management system is available. The Course offering is a vital part of WorldOpp Sourcing.

Curriculum

Activities

The Course is made up of three mandatory and one optional learning activities:

1. Preview lesson, which consists of three parts,
2. Preparation lesson, which is the second learning activity of the Course. The Lesson consists of twelve parts; it is following a preview lesson and is followed by the CNM Cyber Entrance Exam, and
3. Entrance exam, which consists of twenty questions.

One optional activity, the Next Step Q&As forum, is available for those learners who successfully completed the mandatory Course activities.

This is the only part of the Course, which materials haven't been developed at CNM Wiki prior to moving to CNM Cert.

Goals

Goals of the Course are:

1. To give the participants enough data to decide whether they are interested in further enrolling into WorldOpp; and
2. If the participants are interested in WorldOpp, to guide the Aspirants in adjusting to the organizational culture of Friends Of CNM. For the Aspirants, the Course is an introductory stage in the process of the Aspirants's assimilation, and a part of his or her continuous socialization process within Friends Of CNM.

Educational objectives

For every participant, educational objectives are providing introductory knowledge about Friends Of CNM and general workforce services including recruitment, career administration, and workforce development. At the end of the Course, those participants who have decided to continue, shall also know where they are, the direction they are facing, and the way they shall be able to go.

Sought outcomes

The Course is followed by WorldOpp Orientation that is required for the Aspirant's placement into a WorldOpp incubator. So, any decision -- a go or no go -- is the primary outcome. If the Course prompts "a go," other major outcomes that this Course seeks to find are to:

1. Gain commitment of the Aspirants;
2. Reduce anxiety of the Aspirants;
3. Help the Aspirants understand expectations of the Friends Of CNM and its motivations; and
4. Convey what the Aspirants can expect from the Friends Of CNM.
