==Mozilla | ==Why Mozilla Academy?== | ||
<b>Should Mozilla build a university for the web?</b> Within 10 years there will be five billion citizens of the web. Mozilla wants all of these people to know what the web can do. What’s possible. We want them to have the agency, tools and know-how they need to unlock the full power of the web. We want them to use the web to make their lives better. We want them to know they are citizens of the web. | |||

Building on [http://webmaker.org/ Webmaker], [http://hivelearningnetworks.org/ Hive] and our fellowship programs, Mozilla Learning is a portfolio of products and programs that help these citizens of the web learn the most important skills of our age: the ability to read, write and participate in the digital world. These programs also help people become mentors and leaders: people committed to teaching others and to shaping the future of the web. | Building on [http://webmaker.org/ Webmaker], [http://hivelearningnetworks.org/ Hive] and our fellowship programs, Mozilla Learning is a portfolio of products and programs that help these citizens of the web learn the most important skills of our age: the ability to read, write and participate in the digital world.
