| Technology Transfer Workshops and Training |
AFCEE has been proud to host the Technology Transfer Workshops since 1991. Held nearly annually, the workshops have provided thousands of attendees with the tools to support the DoD readiness mission through environmental stewardship. The valuable classroom experience provided through the workshops offer the latest knowledge and skills necessary to achieve site closure and property transfer.
Covering nearly two decades, the AFCEE Technology Transfer Workshops have continued to grow in both attendance and technical offerings, expanding from originally two topics and 100 attendees in 1991, to over 100 technical presentations given in multiple concurrent sessions held over three days, with over 500 attending in 2010. Past Workshop highlights have included short courses (including hands-on field demonstrations and computer classes), open panel discussions, exhibit halls, receptions, local tours, evening technical sessions, and multiple opportunities for breakout sessions. Past Workshop attendees have received professional development hours for attending the Workshop, as well as for participating in the optional short courses. In addition, through the workshops, AFCEE has recognized the outstanding accomplishments and efforts of the environmental professionals and interested parties who have embodied the spirit of teamwork while acting as stewards of the environment.
The AFCEE Technology Transfer Workshops provide an open forum for exchanging ideas, success stories, case histories, and technologies related to environmental cleanup and site closure. Through open communication, these Workshops have succeeded in uniting government, academia, industry, and AFCEE contractors in a combined effort to implement essential site cleanup and closure objectives.
