We’re officially launching AVA Online on Thinkific, a modern, easy-to-use platform that will host our AVA Online Certificate Program! More information below!
Background
The purpose of AVA Online Training Modules is to provide all trainees and team members with an accessible online resource for AVA’s training as per AVA’s objectives and guiding principles.
The AVA Online Training Modules are found HERE (click this link to access). They are hosted on the platform, Thinkific. You will have to create a Thinkific account to access, so see details below for how.
Curriculum Overview
Based on the trainee’s needs, AVA Online Training Modules courses can be completed in a few different ways:
- As individual courses
- As part of AVA micro-credentials, including the AVA Online Training Certificate (see below)
The AVA Online Training Modules courses are organized into four streams built around AVA’s objectives and guiding principles. These are:
*WGD: Women and Gender-Diverse people
**GGD: Girls and Gender Diverse youth
*FDG : Femmes et personnes diversifiées sur le plan du genre
**JFDG : Les jeunes filles et les jeunes issus de la diversité des genres
Micro-credentials
In completing AVA Online Training Modules, the following micro-credentials will be earned: AVA Foundations badge, AVA Intermediate badge and AVA Certificate. You can obtain these badges on their own or work towards your AVA Online Training Certificate.

Have an idea for a course?
Team members may make requests for new content creation/additions that the AVA team will accommodate. Presentations and training at the annual RESOLVE/AVA virtual conference will also be reposited.
AVA Team Members are encouraged to provide content as a means to share their knowledge and experience! We welcome ideas about online course content and are delighted to offer AVA Online as a platform for knowledge mobilization.
Note:
AVA Online is mostly an asynchronous, continuous enrollment, and automated training platform. The platform is not designed for synchronous cohorts or to support intensive person-supported evaluation.
An exception is the AVA Webinar, which allows delivery of 1-hour of course content to a live audience of trainees, academics, community practitioners and experts with lived experience that will be recorded and made available on RISE as part of the AVA Online curriculum.
