	+	{{ :social:auto:courses-start.png?direct&1200 \|RTI Wiki certified courses — citizen, activist, journalist}}
	+
	+	Quick answer. RTI Wiki runs 5 free, self-paced certified courses plus a case-law-anchored CPD programme for officers. Every course has weekly modules, a final exam, an interactive dashboard, and a downloadable certificate on completion. No login is required to read modules; the certificate flow uses a free login. Total cohort delivered to date: tracked internally — see the per-course start page for module count.
	+
	+	===== Citizen + activist tracks =====
	+
	+	* [[:courses:citizen-crash:start\|Citizen RTI crash course]] — 5 modules, 90 minutes total. The fastest path from "I have a problem" to "I have an RTI in the post." Designed for first-time applicants.
	+	* [[:courses:activists:start\|RTI for activists]] — 6 modules. Strategic RTI use for transparency campaigns, public-interest litigation, and policy advocacy. Includes case-law anchors from Anjali Bhardwaj v. UoI (2019) and Aruna Roy doctrine.
	+	* [[:courses:journalists:start\|RTI for journalists]] — 5 modules + final exam. Investigative filing patterns, source protection under §8(1)(g), and the §8(2) public-interest override post-DPDP 2025.
	+
	+	===== Specialist tracks =====
	+
	+	* [[:courses:lokayukta:start\|Lokayukta + RTI integration]] — 5 modules. When to use the Lokayukta in parallel with RTI, evidence-building, and complaint formats across 22 state Lokayuktas.
	+	* [[:courses:dpdp:start\|DPDP 2023 + 2025 Rules — RTI impact]] — 5 modules. The §8(1)(j) amendment, §8(2) public-interest framework, and how to draft RTIs that survive privacy refusals after 14 November 2025.
	+
	+	===== For PIOs and First Appellate Authorities =====
	+
	+	* [[:cpd:start\|RTI CPD course (PIO + FAA)]] — India's first case-law-anchored online CPD course. Classify, draft reasoned §7(8)(i) orders, execute §11 procedure, and apply the post-14-November-2025 §8(2) framework. Issued certificate is recognised for departmental CPD credit.
	+
	+	===== Course delivery model =====
	+
	+	* No login to read modules.
	+	* Free login to take the final exam, save progress, and generate the downloadable certificate.
	+	* Self-paced — no fixed start date.
	+	* Hindi mirror: flagship modules available in Hindi at the [[:hi:start\|Hindi sub-site]].
	+	* Certificate format: signed PDF + verifiable credential URL on RTI Wiki.
	+
	+	===== Why we built these courses =====
	+
	+	The RTI Act, 2005 is a citizen tool, but most citizens do not file because they don't know how. PIOs deny applications wrongly because they don't know the §8 jurisprudence in depth. First Appellate Authorities rubber-stamp PIO orders because they don't have the case-law muscle. These courses are RTI Wiki's structured response — citizen-side and officer-side — to that knowledge gap.
