Page Content

Webinar Page Content – For Census Webinars, I searched the Census Site with the terms “Archive Webinar 2014” – then add link!

State Webinars, Presentations, Tools Content –Searched each State Site, using key words – training, presentation, maps, webinar. Adding links to pages easier than uploading full content. This also makes sure most recent information is viewed. Then, use root URL for the link to find newer posts.
