 iners about your programs\nCraft your \"pitch\" to articulate how your
  program goals align with their training (and grant attracting) object
 ives\nReach out to national trainers without alienating local colleges
 . And vice versa.\nHelp colleges leverage grant opportunities from thi
 rd-parties to deliver training that meets your program needs\n\nWho sh
 ould attend? Energy and water utility and state/local government staff

 nergy/water efficiency and renewable energy improvements.\nNo need to
