Dear Water Professional,
Water On-Line is pleased to announce our latest series of trainings and
workshops available to those of you interested in using the Internet to
help solve California's water problems.
Below you will find our latest Northern California training brochure
which outlines our upcoming training sessions. You are also invited to
Water On-Line's first-ever METADATA strategy sessions scheduled for
February 9th, with a second session to be scheduled in April.
Over the last six months, Water On-Line has helped usher in a new era for
water on the Internet. Since you heard from us in November, we have
assisted the USEPA in upload of their S.F. Bay/Delta water quality
standards to the Internet. In January, Water On-Line held our first So.
Calif. Trainings and in February we will be featured in U.S. Water News.
We are developing advanced Internet trainings for experienced Internet
users and we are booking in-house trainings--sessions brought right to
your terminal!! Our consulting services now include helping you set up
WWW homepages--and we are in the process of developing an HTML class
which will become part of our regular course offerings.
We are also conducting a 1995 sponsorship drive--we urge you to inquire
about your agency/organization becoming a sponsor, as there are
considerable discounts and services that come with sponsorship. Please
see below for more details. We would also like to warmly welcome our
newest sponsors, the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District and
CH2M Hill.
We look forward to more progress getting agencies up and on-line
throughout 1995. Please don't hesitate to e-mail or call if you have any
questions regarding training, sponsorship, or the upcoming METADATA
workshops.
Sincerely,
Kevin Wolf, Project Director: E-mail kjwolf@dcn.davis.ca.us
