As part of the Region V Professional Development Webmasters Training, a website was
developed to coordinate the training activities between Workshop I, II, III, and IV, and to
insure communication between the various webmasters located in Monroe, Miami-Dade,
Broward, and Palm Beach Counties.

As of June, 2002, the site is now housed on a private Blackboard portal for the users involved in the training. Anyone wishing to become part of this experience should do the following:

1. Complete the needs assessment for Region V.

2. Contact the Co-TSI, Dr. Valerie Bryan, bryan@fau.edu, to request further instructions about joining the ongoing training experience.

As we develop other websites for training, we will use a similar process to allow
people throughout the Region and beyond to sign in and join us for the training.
