# About

### **The Catalyst School: what is it all about?**

The **Catalyst School** is a place created to **enhance the impact of Project Catalyst** as a whole by **improving the contribution of all its different players and roles**. We **onboard new members** and help **improving their skills** along the way, in any way they decide to engage with Catalyst: as a **Proposer**, a **Community Advisor**, a **Veteran Community Advisor** or **without any specific role** within the process. In order for **Catalyst** to **flourish** and **reach its full potential**, all these roles need to **give their best contribution** within the process.

We understand that **different people** prefer **different learning methods**. Therefore, the School aims to help the community through:

* Live **sessions** and **workshops**.
* **1-to-1** and **group support** in many **different languages**.
* Interactive **website**.
* **Other workshops** related to Catalyst.

The Catalyst School is **helping the community since the beginning of Fund 6**. We are doing that so we can **receive feedback** from the community and **improve our teaching methods and content** so we reach the **highest Return on Intention** we can.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://catalyst-swarm.gitbook.io/the-catalyst-school/website/about.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
