The team also creates original content in the form of short posts about special topics. Team members enjoy discovering and curating reliable sources of information, have an interest in information management, and would like to help manage a Wordpress site.
Steering Committee, which provides guidance on NWHeat projects, such as the knowledge base and webinar series, develops future directions, and helps recruit participation in our programs.
