Comment (by carike):

 Hallo @dd32,

 > it could be added as a pre-requisite for all authors to complete it?

 The intention is not to require all authors to complete it as outlined
 here :)

 > In order not to create unnecessary barriers to entry for theme authors,
 we do NOT propose that all theme authors be required to complete the
 modules before being able to submit a theme to Trac.
 > Instead, we propose that a theme's reviewer, or a theme team
 representative, be able to enroll a theme author into a module once an
 issue is identified in a theme they have submitted to the WordPress theme
 directory.

 We did consider a collaboration on the training subdomain
 (https://learn.wordpress.org/), but that subdomain is highly unlikely to
 be ready for something like this for at least 6 months and more likely a
 year or more.

 The Contributor Training page you suggested could work for creating a
 Proof of Concept though.

 Would you mind outlining / linking to the process to a new course, with
 new lessons and new questions to https://wordpress.org/contributor-
 training/?
 Does that require a meta ticket, or is there another process?
 Posting all of the correct answers in a meta ticket doesn't seem like the
 best idea :seenoevil:
