Thank you to all who were able to attend the COVID-19 Webinar yesterday! We had 100 people registered, which was the limit on registration, and we really appreciated everyone engaging in the conversation through mentimeter.com.
This is a call to action for civil engineers. During a pandemic in which hand washing is the #1 recommendation, we need to be advocates for better infrastructure like drinking water.
We as civil engineers have the responsibility for the health, safety, and welfare of the public.
One of the questions that we asked was what suggestions do members have for online CEU's as the renewal deadlines for MN & WI are not currently being extended. Some of the responses were:
ASCE (10 free PDHs through your membership)
American Public Works Association (APWA)
MN Concrete Pipe Association
MNSEA/NCSEA
AWMA
NSPE (15 free PDHs)
Midwest Geosciences
ULI
DBIA
Risk through Insurance agent
MN Stormwater seminar series
Virtual conferences - e.g., AISC, ACEC, GBA
Pipeline and Gas Journal webinars
PDHEngineer.com
Red Vector
through your employer
Other discussion included pro-tips for working from home, working safely in the office or field, and tips for a successful virtual meeting.
A video recording of the presentation is available on our YouTube station HERE.
We encourage you to continue the discussion with other members using collaborate.asce.org, or by reaching out to us here at the ASCE-MN Board. “Talk” to you soon!
