Virtual Trainee Rene: December 2006

December 1, 2006

In an attempt to strengthen links between trainees with other trainees and training sites across the network, I am looking for trainees to serve as a liaison between their LEND, UCEDD, or DDRC program site and myself. The purpose of the liaison will be to encourage trainees at their sites to actively participate in the AUCD network and trainee linkage activities. Specifically, I envision the liaison encouraging their peers primarily in the three following ways:

1. active involvement in the network and linkage activities: encouragement through modeling
2. communicating opportunities, discussion points, and other news to trainees at their site
3. providing feedback to me regarding trainee needs, linkage ideas, and opportunities

I have sent a message to Training Directors to recruit a liaison from their site. I appreciate your support in this project. Interested trainees should contact me directly. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Your friendly Virtual Trainee,
Rene Jamison
