Dear friends of the IPT list, The GBIF Secretariat is organising a practical workshop on the IPT, targeted to those who want to become IPT 'experts' and want to collaborate in a distributed helpdesk system (using tools such as this mailing list). Nominations to participate in the workshop have to be done through a GBIF Participant. If you are interested in participate please contact a relevant GBIF Node Manager or Head of Delegation in order to be nominated. The deadline for nominations is the 13th August 2009. The text of the call is available at http://www.gbif.org/News/NEWS1248337023. You will find the full document of the call attached to this email, including the draft agenda and the pre-inscription form that has to be filled by applicants. I look forward to meeting many of you during the workshop Best regards Alberto ---------- Alberto GONZÁLEZ TALAVÁN Training Officer Global Biodiversity Information Facility Secretariat Universitetsparken 15 DK-2100 Copenhagen, Denmark email: <mailto:atalavan@gbif.org> atalavan@gbif.org web: http://www.gbif.org/ T: +45 35 32 14 83 F: +45 35 32 14 80
