NEW - Webinar Information

Most of the Workshop will also be set up as a Webinar (call-in and connection information below). If you are interested in participating in the workshop via webinar, please email Julie.D.Rosati@usace.army.mil so we can let you know where workshop materials are posted beforehand and add your name to our list. You are welcome to participate for any portions of the workshop in which you have interest.

It is likely to be difficult for us to respond to individual off-site questions during the workshop, but we will respond to you each as time allows, so please use the webinar "participant chat" option for questions as these arise. Or, as always, feel free to email workshop instructors anytime.
