Half of our committee was absent during the allotted committee time. Present: Donathan Williams and Rich Bergeron.
So, what we did was to go over the Core Training Topics List that Kate handed out and did some research on some topics.
Our topics were:
- Project and time management
- Collaboration and partnership building/finding expertise to meet your projects’ needs
- Effective evaluation – how to measure project progress/good documentation skills/reporting skills
- Learning styles
- Initiating new programs/gathering resources for new programs
- How to create and expand CTC programming: assessing community needs in terms of programming/working with staff to improve their work re: technology literacy/helping organizations support technology literacy as part of their mission/vision
Here are some web sites we found that we can use as jumping-off points for these topics:
