 Individual Development Plans
Have you completed your 2021 IDP? If not, you still have one more day - 2021 IDPs are due Friday, October 15! If you have questions or need help, please check out the September edition of Train Tracks.
What happens next?
Starting next week, we will compile the data submitted through the IDP tool to summarize training requests and locations. In November, your local Area Technical Training Team (ATTT) will meet to review the training requests and determine local priorities. The identified local priorities will be shared with trainers and managers from TTCP, BWSR, NRCS, and SWCDs. These priorities will be used to develop a training plan for 2022.
If you would like to know more about IDPs and how TTCP uses the information, check out this Webinar Replay. Also, a summary of the 2020 IDP technical training requests can be found here.
If you still have questions or need assistance, please contact us.

New EFT-TDT (WASCOB design) videos are now posted to the WASCOB Training Series page. The videos cover setting up EFT and TDT, importing surveys, creating alignments, designing WASCOBS, and printing documentation. The TDT Workflow document has also been updated.
