MOBIUS Regional Training Days & TRAINING Discussion List

Greetings.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that MCO will offer regional training days for Spring 2010. Resumption of regional, in-person training was one of the strongest requests on the Fall 2009 training survey. MCO wants to bring customized training directly to the MOBIUS members.

So what are we training on and where? That is up to you! The MTRAIN-L discussion list (used mostly for announcements) has been replaced with TRAINING, a new discussion list where we would like to hear from you. To subscribe, please click on the following link.

In the section “Subscribing to Training” enter your email address and click on Subscribe (you may also enter your name and configure a password, if you like). Note that the list has been pre-populated with the MOBIUS Site Coordinators and Council representatives, so you may already have been subscribed. If you wish to UNSUBSCRIBE from the list, click on the above link, scroll all the way to the bottom of the page, enter your email address and click Unsubscribe or edit options.

MCO has identified 4 potential regions for training: Kansas City, St. Louis, Springfield, and Columbia/mid-Missouri. We would like to hold a day’s worth of training in each region during Spring 2010. Training days may focus on a single topic (e.g., Millennium Acquisitions) or be split into several shorter sessions (e.g., two 3-hour or three 2-hour workshops). The aim of the regional workshops is to provide the training you want in a convenient location.

If you want a say in the training offered by MCO, what is covered, and where it is held, please subscribe to TRAINING. We look forward to hearing from you.
