There's a wind jobs opportunity presentation at COT next Wednesday (April

30) evening at 7:30 PM (see attached press release). A working group

meeting on developing the wind technician program at COT the afternoon of

May 14, time not set yet. The goal is to create wind energy program at COT

GF. Peggy's done quite a bit of groundwork on this. Joe Schaefer, Asst

Dean of the college, is the lead at COT for developing new programs (he's

great). I believe he plans to structure the program as an offshoot of

their new building trades program. We look to

incorporate LEED into that as well.

The Wind Coalition planning meeting will be Thursday, May 1, from 11 AM- 1

PM including lunch, location should be set tomorrow morning.
