Introductory training for educators

["John Heinbokel"]

NTRODUCTORY TRAINING IN SYSTEM DYNAMICS FOR EDUCATORS

The Waters Center for System Dynamics is offering "Introduction to
Systems Thinking and Systems Tools" this summer. This is the first
and prerequisite course in a five-course sequence leading to a
Certificate in System Dynamics for Educators. A general description
of this course (CSED 341) and the Certificate in general can be found
at our web-site:

http://www.trinityvt.edu/waters/Service ... adCert.htm

We are planning to offer this course at two times and locations this summer
(our web site will be updated to reflect this as soon as we are convinced that
the recent LoveBug infestation has been fully cleaned up; the current
information available on our site concerning content, organization, and costs
of this course ARE still fundamentally accurate):

10-14 July; Trinity College in Burlington, VT. We will use College facilities
and housing (the latter at a nominal charge) for a weeks intensive introduction
to the tools and underlying mindset of System Dynamics.

24-28 July; Sturgeon Bay, WI. We are contracting to offer this course to a
cohort of educators from NE Wisconsin. We anticipate that space (limited
to some degree) will be available for other participants who might wish to
join this particular session. If time or travel constraints limit your
ability to participate in the first session at Trinity, please contact us
to explore the possibility of joining this second section.

If you are interested in either of these opportunities, or subsequent courses
in the Certificate (we anticipate conducting the second course, CSED 342, which
focuses on building computer simulations, through an on-line format in the fall),
please contact us by one of the means below.

Thank you very much for your attention and interest.
