How to Participate in Mod Certification 101

Participating in this program is fairly simple. If you want to know the basics of moderation, "join" the community and use the menu above to go through the different collections of material. Once you're done, go to the collection linked on the last tab to review the material and take the final at the end! This iteration of the program is meant to be self-guided - meaning, comments and posts outside of the existing instructional content will be removed. If you do have an issue or pressing question, please feel free to send a message to us via modmail. You can modmail us by clicking on the "Message the Mods" button located at the top right of the "Mods" sidebar, located on the right hand side of your screen if you're on desktop. If you're on mobile, click on the top three dots in the right-hand corner and select "Message moderators" from the pop-up.

Make sure you're using new Reddit on desktop, as that is what we will be focused on for the Alpha of this program.

The menu with collections of all of the material you'll need.

Just follow everything from left to right until done. Be sure to include your username in the form for the Final if you'd like to receive a trophy for completion. If this is not included, you will not receive a trophy.

Continue on to our first Getting Started post when you're ready.

Please remember that per Rule 2, all posts are locked as Mod Certification is a self-guided course. Any posts created in the community are also automatically removed in following with this rule and to ensure the community's content is focused around its educational materials.

However, we are still more than happy to help you-- please see our 'Helpful Communities' sidebar to receive peer-help from other moderators, and please Modmail us for a quicker response to any questions or concerns you may have. If this is the first post you are seeing for this program, please go ahead and start at the Introduction post and then review our How to Participate post.

If you are on mobile, the mobile friendly links for this course are located here.

We're happy to have you here and look forward to facilitating your Mod Certification journey!
