***********Developing a Disaster Plan (Live Online
Training)****************

Three-part Centra Session meeting 10 am - 12 pm Wednesdays, with two
weeks in between each session.
Dates: January 25, 2006, February 8, 2006, and February 22, 2006

Disaster planning requires the support and commitment of staff from many
departments, including facilities and fiscal affairs. Plan preparation
is more successful and effective when undertaken by a committee with
staff representatives from across the institution.  This web-based class
is designed to support the work of an institution's disaster planning
committee. Homework assignments will require input and support from a
variety of staff members. Taught in 3 two-hour sessions over the course
of six weeks, it guides participants through the development of a
written disaster plan. The modules cover:
establishment of a planning structure, information gathering, including
risk assessment and resource list development, setting recovery
priorities, an overview of recovery procedures, plan development, and
working with disaster recovery vendors.

Cost is $155, SOLINET members, $225 for non-members; early bird
discounts and late fees apply. Link for more information:
