One way to take advantage of training opportunities is to participate in webinars. Follow this link to view a PowerPoint presentation about the most recent webinar, offered in conjunction with FEW's Education and Training Foundation. The subject of the webinar, held on May 18, 2007, was "Is a Career in Project Management for You?"

Another training opportunity you can take advantage of year 'round is the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the D.C. Metro Region (of which the Federal Triangle Chapter is a part) and Grantham University! Follow this link to a PowerPoint slide that "Did You Know" highlights of the MOU. Then visit Grantham University to see if on-line courses are right for you.

In addition to the reduced tuition rates, a 4-year full scholarship for members in the D.C. Metro Region is being developed. Bookmark this page and check back frequently. Procedures will be posted as they are approved.

On November 15, 2006, members participated in a webinar introducing the concept of webinars and how to participate. The PowerPoint slide show that was presented during the webinar is available for download. Follow this link to download the slides.

The Chapter held a two-part training session on adult learning and how to get college credit for work experience, conducted by our own Jack Kenner, Chapter Vice President.  Jack has graciously allowed us to post his handout materials on our site to enable more people to benefit from self-study. Some of these documents require Adobe Acrobat reader to open properly in your browser. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer, visit Adobe.com for ways to download it. In addition, Jack has created a web site to load even more educational material for you to access. Click on the ACECAR logo
