Description
- Description
- The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to help states/territories/tribes/local governments develop and implement effective wetland programs. To achieve this goal, aswm will: 1) assemble an advisory group for each training event; 2) consult with states/territories/tribes/local governments to determine training priorities; 3) plan workshops around key topics for advancing wetland programs within the core elements framework; 4) prepare and conduct 2-3 training workshops per year; 5) support travel for non-federal training attendees; and 6) share tools and resources from trainings.activities:the following steps outline how aswm/nawm intend to meet the proposed project goals: step 1: assemble an advisory group for each training event. As each training has specific needs, target audiences and expertise required, aswm will convene an advisory group for each training event. Step 2: identify training priorities. Training needs and priorities will be identified through workgroup conference calls specific to planning each training workshop, outreach to aswm's 1,300 members and extensive contact lists, discussions at national conferences/meetings/workshops, webinars and other information gathering methods. Step 3: plan individual training workshops. This proposal includes 2-3 training workshops per year over a 6-year time frame. Under 'normal' non-pandemic conditions, workshops will be located in geographically diverse regions of the U.S. With an eye toward being in or nearby major U.S. Cities to accommodate the travel needs of participants. Aswm will identify and invite speakers, trainers, and attendees; develop agendas and materials; manage registrations; reserve meeting space; coordinate all other logistical arrangements, including non-federal participant travel scholarships; conduct the 12-18 training workshops; and distribute and synthesize workshop evaluations. Step 4: provide nonfederal travel assistance. IT is anticipated that attendance at these training workshops will be by invitation and that invitations will include notification of the availability of travel assistance for states, tribes, and other nonfederal participants. Aswm will manage all travel scholarship assistance activities. Travel support allocations will be prioritized in the following order: 1) speakers and presenters; 2) state, tribal, and local government participants whose work is directly related to the training topics; and 3) others working in areas less likely to benefit directly but whose attendance will enrich the training experience by bringing unique and different expertise to the training workshop. Step 5: carry out individual training workshops. Aswm staff will be onsite to carry out each training workshop to ensure that logistical arrangements run smoothly, presenters stay on schedule and that there are contingency plans if there are weather issues or other occurrences that interfere with carrying out the training. If feasible, aswm will provide offsite (remote online) access to all or part of the training through gotowebinar or an alternative remote participation platform. Aswm will move in-person trainings to the above-detailed virtual format if required to avoid health risks from the covid-19 pandemic. Step 6: transfer results. Training content and other useful materials developed for and from the training workshops will be shared on aswm websites, newsletters, social media and potentially through presentations at other professional conferences. Aswm plans to hold 2-3 trainings per year (for a total of 12-18 trainings) on need-based topics. Subrecipient:no subawards are included in this assistance agreement.outcomes:12-16 training workshops will be held in diverse regions of the U.S. (or online as needed). Workshop participants will be provided evaluations to complete in order to gauge the overall quality of the workshop and training materials.
