About the cover: Since 1984, when Glenn Dodd organized the t aining courses for
mosquito cont ol professionals, the Florida Mosquito Cont ol Association (FMCA) has
recog ized the impor ance of providing world class t aining to those on the ont lines
of mosquito cont ol. For the 2016 Dodd Shor Courses, the sy bol of the gold shield
represents the honorable and ver serious task of going to ba le against our state’s
most nefarious pest. For millennia, the color pur le has represented nobilit , and as
you wear the 2016 Dodd Shor Courses shir , remember that your work is ex emely
impor ant, absolutely necessar , and cer ainly noble. The ser ices that mosquito
cont ol ex er s provide around the state is to be commended and suppor ed. The
FMCA will continue to suppor the increase of knowledge, collaboration, and diligence
– all a ibutes that Glenn Dodd stood for. These characteristics are what the Dodd
Shor Courses are all about. Enjoy your courses, share ideas, and by all means be proud
of the work you do each and ever day.
In 2015 the Dodd Shor Course Commi ee seized an oppor nit to 'take Dodd to the
nex level' by offering a complete course of st dies desig ed to recog ize different levels
of t aining. The course of st dies will be developed by the Dodd Shor Course
Commi ee to establish a Core Cer ificate, an Advanced Cer ificate, and a Grandmaster
Cer ificate. Each level will consist of several courses and may take several years to
complete. Upon completion of each level, a cer ificate will be presented to recog ize
successf l completion of that level and to encourage the st dent to continue to the nex
level for that course of st dy. The basis of the course of st dy cer ification is to both
encourage lear ing and to provide a focus and direction for Dodd a endees. CEUs will
still be offered as usual for individual courses taken each year. "Taking Dodd to the
nex level" is something in which Glenn would be ver proud to par icipate.
Stay t ned in the coming years as we take Dodd to the nex level.

GlennonDavidDodd,1948‐1991
GlennDoddwas,for10ofthe15yearsthathewasinmosquitocontrol,theAssistantDirectorofIndianRiverMosquitoControl
District, in Vero Beach, Florida.Tothosewhoknewhimwell,andfor thosewhodidnotknowhim,hewasmuchmorethananassis‐tantdirector. Hewasthe irsttorecognize that mosquito controlhad to get into the employeetrainingbusiness. Glennwas theforcethatgotitstarted.Hecalleduponhis substantial intellect, hiscolleagues, especially Jim Robin‐son of Pasco County MosquitoControlDistrictandBillOpp,thenwithHRS/DACS and now retiredfrom Lee County Mosquito Con‐
trolDistrict,hisotherfriends,andhisfuturefriendstoorganizeandpresent several “courses” inVeroBeachduring the fall of1984.The six courses taught that year were more appropriatelycalledgroupdiscussionsandtheywereaboutavarietyoftopicsof interesttomosquitocontrolsuchassurveillance, larvicides,adulticides,applicationequipmentandcomputers.Thepartici‐pants were principally the directors and biologists of Floridaprogramswho sat around in a semicircle in various locationsand“talkedaboutthings.”What started as a simple idea has blossomed into one of thelargestand,arguably,thebestsetsoftrainingcoursesformos‐quitocontrol in theworld today. Thisyear29coursesareof‐fered,fromahalf‐daytoseveraldaysinlength.Eachyearthoseof us on the Dodd Short Course Committee ask ourselves ifGlennwouldbepleasedwithwhatwearedoinginhisname.

WethinkGlennwouldbeproudofthisyear’sofferings.NamingthecoursesforGlenn,afterhissuddenandtragicdeathin1991,was not simply a gesture of thanks and recognition of Glenn’scontributions.Hisnamebecameaconstantremindertousofthehigh ideals that Glenn personi ied. We hope you ind that the2016DoddShortCoursesdescribed in thisbrochuremeetyourtrainingneedsandexpectations.TheDoddShortCourseCommitteealwaysislookingforideasfornew courses and for enthusiastic and hard‐working coursecoordinatorsand instructors toparticipate.
