<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:105%">Extension professionals are constantly seeking new strategies to effectively reach and engage our audiences. While traditional methods are still effective in many places and for certain audiences, innovative approaches
can expand our connections, deepen our impact, and broaden our scope. They also give us a chance to learn new skills providing us with professional advancement.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:105%">In the rapidly changing world of invasive species, nimble and novel outreach mechanisms that reach a cross-section of society are necessary to positively impact our renewable resources in range, forests, and wetlands.
Maintaining ecosystem health at the landscape scale can be more feasible when we use communication tools that link people together at the regional level in the blink of an eye.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The project team consists of natural resource professionals from across the U.S. These webinars are focused on the critical issues identified in the past two RREA strategic plans. The purpose is to feature creative, innovative, and effective
Extension programs. The webinars will be an opportunity for renewable resource extension professionals to share, learn, and connect with their colleagues across land-grant institutions and disciplines. It is our hope that the webinars will bring increased
public awareness of the RREA program and result in more informed, better served stakeholders.<o:p></o:p></p>
