Tampa, FL—(PR Newswire)—June 25, 2002- After months of collaboration since their high profile partnership last December, RedVector.com and Professional Surveyor Magazine announce the first release of online coursework from their elite “Dream Team” of Instructors. The first 10 courses are already available for purchase on RedVector.com (www.RedVector.com) and tagged with a PS icon to designate them accordingly. A vast number of additional courses are in the works and will be added to the RedVector.com website within the next several weeks. Through their union, RedVector.com and Professional Surveyor are both committed to providing some of the highest caliber education available, in a timely manner, to surveyors who must keep pace with the rapidly changing industry.
Since its execution, the powerhouse partnership has gained international attention. According to RedVector.com President and Chief Operating Officer, Brent A. Craven, “RedVector.com immediately recognized the benefits an alliance with Professional Surveyor Magazine would bring to our customers and the international surveying community at large, and we have not been disappointed. Professional Surveyor Magazine has been successful in bringing seven of the world’s leading surveying and geomatics experts to the table as exclusive authors for this program. We have already received a countless number of positive responses from students who have taken these courses. There is obviously a great need for this caliber of online continuing education courses in this industry and we are working hard with the “Dream Team” to provide it. We will constantly be adding to our collection of online courses which already exceeds 800.”
The first group of “Dream Team” courses currently featured on RedVector.com is authored by Dr. David Gibson, the founding Program Director of the Geomatics Program at the University of Florida. The courses cover surveying boundary law and began selling immediately after being posted on RedVector.com. According to Allen Cheves, Associate Publisher of Professional Surveyor Magazine, “We're extremely pleased that the program is headed in a positive direction right off the bat. One of our goals for Professional Surveyor Magazine is to champion continuing progress in our industry by promoting education and technology. The warm reception of the first “Dream Team” courses leaves us confident that our progress with RedVector is accomplishing this."
The official course launch coincides with the beginning of an impressive advertising campaign in Professional Surveyor Magazine. The campaign's goal is to reinforce the significance of the RedVector/PSPCI partnership, and encourage thousands in need of CE credits to fulfill them through RedVector.com. According to Dream Team Program Coordinator Joe Betit, "Our aim is to provide a suite of continuing education courses that present a comprehensive, integrated approach to surveying education that blends current and emerging issues or technologies.”
In addition to Gibson and Betit, the “Dream Team” includes Dr. Ben Buckner, Mr. James Demma, Mr. Donald Wilson, Mr. Daniel Beardslee, and Ms. Wendy Lathrop. Future courses from them, on a wide variety of surveying topics, are expected to be available soon.
