User:Jim Carter/CVUA

Hello there! I am an instructor at the Counter Vandalism Unit Academy (or CVUA). This means that I teach new vandal patrollers how to identify and deal with vandalism and a whole lot more. I have developed a programme which covers all of the basics of anti-vandalism and some more which you will come across around Wikipedia. I am happy to adapt this where necessary for users with experience in some areas, or where a user wishes to focus on a specific area.

Each person I tutor will get their own "Academy" page, where I will keep updates on the progress of their course. I will use that provide lessons and give tasks to users I tutor to help them develop their anti-vandalism skills. Once a user has completed the course, I will give them five days, during which I will monitor their activity; at the end of this time, I will set them a test. If there are no major problems during the monitoring phase and they are successful at the test, the user will graduate.

As well as this programme, I will offer whatever extra support is required to those I teach. I always welcome users raising questions or problems at my talk page and will do my best to address them. Once a user has graduated, I am still completely happy to give them all the advice and/or support that they need.
