<div>Hi John,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Yea, this is meant for you as I am very new to this Belender Educators Listserve.. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am referring to you as a leader in your group. But I hope you will be interested in this topic of building "virtual teams" to do an experimental project rather than just conversation. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>But, truth is unless you do an experimental project via a virtual team, both creative and knowledge based, you really don't know .</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This is why I must stay focused on creating local virtual team in my own community here in Fairfax Metro DC, and I hope you and others will see the value of doing the same. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The "training issue" can be addressed by three different "local" options as I have posted today on my Fairfax Community Forum. I have invited P</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The three options for "Training and Educators" community infrastructures that I see in my own community and as I have posted today at my Fairfax Community Forum are as follows:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>(01) Local Community TV Station where I have takes courses and gotten "Certifications" on video production related topics (<a href="http://www.fcac.org/">www.fcac.org</a>). Anyone who lives near a Urban Metropolitan City in USA, has access to such a "public access tv station" facility and sophisticated video producation equipment and training . I have a list of all public access stations in USA that be glad to share if this is value added. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>(02) Fairfax County Public School System Adult Education Class Route (not sure how to connect with this option yet, though this is a very large education program in my County of 2 Million people ).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>(03) Connect via the Northern Virginia Community College (<a href="http://NVCC.EDU">NVCC.EDU</a>) that has about 40,000 Students, mostly part time students. </div>
