1. Minutes - Adopted from
6/13 meeting, and are on the Board login area of the website.
2. Marketing - Contract
revoked from Fluor Hanford so we need to find areas outside the Government
arena for training courses. Need
to market Metro Police, EPA, NRC, etcÖ
We do this by contacting
organizations and looking for the Training Organizations. DOE training organization was contacted
as well as Homeland Security.
Grants need to be pursued
to supplement our income. We will
need to have vigilance in locating funding sources. Board needs to brainstorm off-line and bring ideas to light.
