Introduction to Drupal
This workshop introduces users to the basic functions for creating and publishing content to a Drupal website at Appalachian. Users who will be maintaining a website are required to attend. Please note the prerequisites.

Having a Drupal site is a prerequisite because we have found that it is easier to retain information from the workshop if you have a site to work on already. However, people who are interested in learning how to use Drupal are welcome to attend as well.

Introduction to Excel
An introduction to understanding Microsoft Excel (focusing on 2010 for Windows and 2011 for Mac) and its basic features. Learn your way around the interface. Create some simple formulas and learn some of the standard Excel functions.

Forms with Acrobat XI Pro
If the PDF will meet your needs, Acrobat XI Pro is easy to work with, especially for converting an existing paper form to one that can be filled out on the computer. Collecting data through a PDF form can be useful at times, but may not be the best method. A web form for users to complete from a web site should be considered for ease of use and for centralizing the data. In this workshop we will discuss the pros and cons of a PDF form before getting into the basics of creating a form, distributing a PDF form, and accessing the data.

AIR Training
Faculty and staff attending this AIR (Activities, Interests and Relationships) Training session will learn about the electronic system for conflict of interest Disclosure Forms and how it is implemented on campus. It is important for all faculty and EPA non-faculty to be familiar with the AIR system in order to fill out Disclosure Forms. Attendees are strongly encouraged to bring a wireless device with internet connection to fill out annual Disclosure Forms for FY 15 during the session. Additional time will be available for individuals who desire additional assistance.

Manuscripts 3: Automate, Collaborate, Publish

See the Additional Information link below for details about the series of workshops.

AGrants Training
Faculty and staff attending this AGrants session will learn about the electronic routing system for externally sponsored projects and how it is implemented on campus. Thus it is important for faculty and staff who pursue support from external sources as well as administrators who will be reviewing and approving proposals to be familiar with the AGrants system.

This session, providing an in depth look at the AGrants system, is scheduled for one and a half hours. Additional time is available at the end of the session for individuals who desire additional assistance. Attendees are welcome to bring a wireless device to follow the presentation.
