This blog documented my journey to the presidency of the International Association of Workforce Professionals. I am now Immedicate Past President and will still post occasionally when I find issues of interest to IAWP members.

History of Workforce Development
This week I concentrated mostly on updating the History of Workforce Development WPDP study guide. As I reported earlier, the Board approved dividing up each 100+ page study guide into 4 modules, and then dividing each the 100-question test into four 25-question tests to correspond with each module. It has been a few years since the History study guide was updated, so I have spent quite a bit of time researching workforce events of the last few years. And as you know, it's been quite a ride these past few years! This week I put all those hours of research into editing the information into a usable format. Next I will need to send it to a few SMEs (subject matter experts) to review it and see if I covered everything that needs to be covered. It will also need to be proofed for typos. After the review and proofing, I will need develop additional test questions to cover the added material. Finally, I will put the exam online and the History modules will be ready to go. I anticipate it will be late spring before all the History modules are complete and placed online. It's quite a task to get this upgrade complete.

Well you have been busy. I really appreciate your blog and posts about what you have been doing for IAWP. If you need a proofer or someone to read your updated module, I would be happy to do it.
