    Good morning! 

    We are looking for DPC members to provide feedback on a new educational tool that the Common Ground Alliance (CGA) is developing to help excavators learn safe hand-digging practices. 

    To review the training, select the link below, which will take you to Coursettra. Select 'Register'. After registering, you will have the option to immediately take the training, or to access it later in 'My Training'. 

    After reviewing the course and completing the quiz, you will have the option to complete a survey, which you can use to provide feedback about the course. 

    The course and survey should take only 10-15 minutes to complete. 

     

    To begin, please visit: https://learning.udigny.org/4iq/publiccourse/CGAHandDiggingBeta

    I want to thank those of you who have completed or at least started the course so far. @Ronald Dietz, @Gary Aber, @Paul Marozzi, @Christine Polchlopek, @Gary Van Etten, @Bill VanDame @Keith Wallenstein, @John Yehl

    Kevin and I are wrapping up meetings at CGA's fall committee summit in Indianapolis, and this course was a major item of discussion. Because we are already testing it, UDig NY's leadership in education is being recognized nationally, and you all are no small part in that. 

    I want to encourage people to continue taking the course and providing feedback on the survey. I am aware that there were technical difficulties with some folks accessing the class from the link in the email, so if you're having trouble please reach out and we'll work to get it sorted out. 

    Thanks all!
