AEE / MVP Course

• Instructor (JC) wants to modify existing course to include FEMP materials.

• Would like to conduct ‘market test’ of existing course to FEMP/DOD audience to solicit feedback.

• Modify / revise course based on feedback.

AEE / MVP Course

• AEE has proposed to offer ‘in-house’ course at WEEC in Atlanta in October.

• DOE would be responsible for arrangements and marketing.

• Participants would earn CMVP (certification) from AEE.

• Compare to Sain experience? Is cost/time a barrier, or are there other issues?

Straw Man Modules

• Under development, but not ready for distribution.

• On hold until needs assessment and AEE collaboration better defined.
