Schema Course extension Community Group created

The Schema Course extension Community Group has been launched:
  http://www.w3.org/community/schema-course-extend/

--------------------------------------------------

This mission of this group, initiated by LRMI, is to develop an
extension for schema.org concerning the discovery of any type of
educational course (online/offline, long/short, scheduled/on-demand).
Educational course is  defined as "some sequence of events and/or
creative works which aims to build the knowledge, competence or ability
of learners". (Out of scope: information about students and their
progression etc; information needed internally for course management
rather than discovery).

--------------------------------------------------

This is a community initiative. W3C's hosting of this group does not
imply endorsement of the activities.

The group must now choose a chair:
