Worker Education and Training Program
Fall 2004 Awardee Meeting
From December 6–7, 2004, the National Institute of Environmental
Health Sciences (NIEHS) was proud to sponsor the December WETP
Awardee meeting in Durham, North Carolina. Over 100 people within
our community joined us for this exciting event, comprised of
plenary sessions, small break-out groups, dynamic audio visual
interactions, and plenty of time for questions and answers.
The meeting opened with welcoming remarks from the staff of
the NIEHS Worker Education and Training Branch. During the next
day and a half, invited speakers gave presentations on a range
of topics including the new policy on fair use of materials created
with NIH funds, improvements to the WETP curricula catalog, advances
in training technologies for worker safety and health, the results
of a Clearinghouse study of market trends in labor needs on hazardous
waste sites, and updates to the minimum criteria.
In addition to time spent during the day at the meeting, a strong
representation of the Awardee community gathered together at the
Durham Marriott Hotel for a karaoke session of popular tunes and
classical jazz music.
