SYNCING WITH CERS IN REAL TIME - DO WE WANT IT? TU-L3 100753

Tuesday 3pm to 4pm

Room	GOLD KEY III
Seating	40 of 50 seats available
Credits	REHS: 1.0
Speakers	Darryl Booth
Objective	Attendees will learn the current state of CERS Data Transfer (EDT) and explore the value and potential of moving to real-time communications.
Description	Most CUPAs use CERS EDT to download submittals and to upload inspections/violations (CME). For these CUPAs, the exercise is typically done once a day or once a week. In some cases, it's on-demand. These were the standards and expectations established when CERS was first built. In fact, the technology would also allow for real-time transfer, meaning that new inspections would be posted immediately. New submittals would arrive upon submission.

Regardless of the direction other agencies go in the future, this will give them concepts and ideas to more efficiently run their CUPA programs.

UNVEILING CUPA'S NEW LEARNING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM TH-L2 100755

Thursday 10am to 11am

Room	GOLD KEY I/II
Seating	95 of 100 seats available
Credits	REHS: 1.0
Speakers	Tim Snellings
Objective	Official Launch: CalCUPA has developed a new Learning Management System (LMS) for its members to continue to receive CUPA Program education. Successful completion of course materials and quizzes will award members CEUs that can be used to maintain a variety of certifications. We will review this new system/tool together during this Session.
Description	Over the years, we at calcupa.org have created several different methods of providing training for members to learn and earn CEUs. We've hosted a video library and over 200 videos from our 2 years of virtual conferences. We have tried several methods of having users verify they have watched the videos in an effort to maintain our accreditation with the State. In order to continue to improve CUPA Program Training to our members, we are moving forward with the next step in our training evolution to provide members with a full Learning Management System (LMS) training experience. This will allow Course attendees to be provided a variety of types of information including documents and videos. Successful training will be verified with the use of quizzes which must be passed in order to earn CEUs. We believe this will offer a further validation of the training experience for our members and continue to justify the awarding of CEUs for completed training. In this Session, we will walk through the process of accessing LMS Courses at calcupa.org and demonstrating some of the features and functions of the material and most importantly, how to meet the criteria for earning CEUs.
