Hi all this message is of an URGENT Nature.

I have been out of the loop as some may know and I am not sure what if 
anything has been done to collect information on the funded courses we 
hope to cover this year.

However I would appreciate a reply form each group addressed to me a s 
soon as you can indicating what courses you would like to have next 
training grant year.

On a side bar - As far as I know we will look at the funded courses last 
year and see if we can again offer them.

Last year we had no SAR manager courses and only a couple Team Leaders 
to try it out as well as some ICS which is geared towards the Level 200 
not the 100.
Additionally we seem to have trouble getting Swift Water Inst. and Man 
tracking Instructors so we may go lightly on those courses next year so 
we can gear up instructors in the future. 
All thoughts for now but the Prov Gov. does want a draft from us this 
month indicating the groups that want the courses, what course and your 
host municipality.

Please indicate  2 - 3 courses your groups want based on the course list 
from last year.  The list may change slightly and if the course is not 
on the list name it any ways as a nice to have and if it appears often 
we may sponsor it????
This list is found on the SAR Alberta web site under Training Grants.

PLease get back to me soon, but first have a brief discussion with your 
Training Committee and or Board so your decision to host a course in 
your group in not a sole decision as we take no responsibility for 
assigning a course to your group if you ask for one.

Take care

Paul
