Hi, Dave, et al ~

You are all set with 20 Practice sites for LAMC to begin conduct local
training, plus a lead Trainer site.

Please read the following closely and see attached for users login into
practice sites.

20 PRACTICE SITES AND ONE LEAD TRAINER SITE:

This is set up just like we do our face-to-face and online training,

where participants are 'students' in the lead trainer site and have
instructor rights in their practice sites. The lead trainer can jump to any
practice site to help participants.

The trainer site is where the lead trainer (lamc_support account) can

demonstrate things to the participants during the workshops, and then,
direct faculty to go in their practice sites to apply/try them. I have
imported our lessons/tutorials under Modules in your lead trainer site.
Every once in a while we should have you delete them and get the most recent
version.

These sites are yours to keep for LAMC training. Be sure your faculty

understand that they are for training ONLY.

ACCESS TO YOUR TRAINING SITES:

Lead Trainer Account - with access to the practice sites and lead trainer
site
userid: lamc_support
password: fun

(You need to decide who is the lead here - or rotate using this
account)

Practice Accounts - See attached document with login information that you
can print/cut up for every training session for your participants. Please
ask faculty to NOT change the password to keep things simple from training
to training. If at some point in the future, the sites get full of junk
material from practice, we can delete them and install fresh sites. Just let
me know.

INCLUDING YOUR TRAINING ON OUR ON-SITE CALENDAR:

When you start scheduling group training for LAMC, let me know and we'll
include your sessions in our onsite schedule. I will need information on
location, dates/times, and lead trainer. This way, you can direct your
faculty there to register and keep track of enrollment. It also helps us
with training activity going on in the servers and around the state for
growth/support. Please break up your training into several days/sessions if
you want to have positive experiences. It's tons of information. See what
Pam has scheduled - look at the third calendar:

AFTER YOUR TRAINING IS OVER:

When faculty are finished with the training, you, David, can request
development sites for them, if you feel that they truly got it. If they are
not ready and become a support nightmare, we'll pass them back to you. :) We
*strongly* recommend that you direct faculty to our online training in
addition to your local training, as the online course allows faculty to
experience being online students in the system PRIOR to teaching with it,
and get a deeper and better perspective of the environment.

Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great summer!

Best,
Vivie
