What is IPM3 ?
• IPM3 stands for ‘Professional Program in Pest Management’.
• The IPM3 Training Consortium was formed to meet the diverse Integrated Pest Management training needs of federal agencies and beyond.
![Page 3: Robert M. Nowierski National Program Leader Bio-Based Pest Management USDA- NIFA Washington, DC IPM 3 Training Consortium.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e615503460f94b5c3da/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Concept for Federal Agency IPM Training
• Proposed by Bob Nowierski during review of IPM Program for National Park Service (May 2002)
• Critical need for more IPM Training• Limited opportunities for training• Proposed national IPM training
for federal agencies
![Page 4: Robert M. Nowierski National Program Leader Bio-Based Pest Management USDA- NIFA Washington, DC IPM 3 Training Consortium.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e615503460f94b5c3da/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Concept for IPM Distance Education• Mark Ascerno and Bill Hutchison Univ. of
Minnesota had been discussing IPM distance education in a different context
• Bob Nowierski and Mark discussed IPM distance education for federal employees at ESA Meeting (October 2003) and a partnership was formed
![Page 5: Robert M. Nowierski National Program Leader Bio-Based Pest Management USDA- NIFA Washington, DC IPM 3 Training Consortium.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e615503460f94b5c3da/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Richardson Retreat
• The organizing meeting was held to discuss the feasibility of forming a consortium of educational institutions to provide the knowledge base to fill diverse IPM training needs.
• It was agreed that:– no single educational institution had the knowledge
resources to fill the broad range of IPM training needs – forming a consortium was the best way to provide high
quality, fully integrated training
August 2004, Richardson,Illinois

Who’s Involved in Steering IPM3 ?
• The IPM3 Training Consortium is made up of IPM practitioners from land grant institutions and from federal agencies, a number of which are under a federal mandate to implement IPM.

throughout the year.• Each module will be 6 weeks long.• Multiple modules will be needed to complete a
course.
![Page 14: Robert M. Nowierski National Program Leader Bio-Based Pest Management USDA- NIFA Washington, DC IPM 3 Training Consortium.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e615503460f94b5c3da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
IPM3 Distance Platform• IPM3 modules will be
delivered online via WebCT– Progress and
evaluation– Internal email for
contacting instructors
![Page 15: Robert M. Nowierski National Program Leader Bio-Based Pest Management USDA- NIFA Washington, DC IPM 3 Training Consortium.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e615503460f94b5c3da/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Training Modules
• The curricula emphasizes practical content.• Academic content is included to the extent
necessary to support the understanding of practical content and ongoing IPM education.
• Multiple learning formats and assessments are
used to maximize learning and retention of info
