Events / Re: Assume there is an Open Mic Night tonight?
« on: May 03, 2021, 08:35:02 AM »
Not from my perspective.  An empty slot on the calendar means no event.  I just guess I couldn't get my old-school brain wrapped around no event on a Friday night :)  Now I'm recalibrated :)   Don't mind me, I'll just shuffle back to my dusty old rocking chair in the corner.  Where's my afghan?  :) :)

Agreed, and I think you left it on your high-back chair next to the scotch and the fireplace 8)

Not to poo-poo the efforts to keep interest up and traffic buzzing throughout the division, but is "Open Mic Night" (i.e. there's no particular focus facility so just staff up whatever you feel like) really that different from a Friday night without a published event (where there's no particular focus facility so presumably we would just staff up whatever we feel like)?

Hey Robert! You're absolutely right, it really isn't that different with the exception that we aren't putting it out there. Our opinion is that in advertising Open Mic Night we are implying that at least one of facilities will be online, so in a sense we are promising service will be available somewhere in the division. Hope that helps!

No event this evening, we're taking it off. Yes you are correct. Open Mic or Light Up America will be posted on the event calendar in the future.

Would it perhaps be helpful to post on the calendar "NO EVENTS TONIGHT" and/or maybe a social media post indicating as much?

Open Mic Night! No featured fields, just those who want to staff up their ARTCCs and airports may do so. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you may see the entire US online!

The contest submission period has closed and the ZHQ staff (Logo Selection Committee) are reviewing the submissions to select the top few designs and we expect to open the vote, based on those selected, to the VATUSA membership sometime this month. Stay Tuned!

News / Announcing the "New" VATUSA Training Academy (Coming Soon)
« on: March 31, 2021, 06:07:08 PM »

VATUSA is proud to offer its community of learners a reenvisioned Training Academy that aims to invigorate and modernize a newly designed student-centered curriculum, while presenting facility training departments with an opportunity to offset the burden of training responsibility by offering a complete and wholesome education that is differentiated, interactive, and based on competency frameworks.

Every facility within VATUSA has dedicated time and resources to this project, and it would not have been possible without the unprecedented and magnanimous collaborative effort put forth by all of the involved members.

We eagerly anticipate the launch of the new VATUSA Training Academy that is currently on target for the beginning to middle of Summer 2021.
