If only the legendary Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) had this tool! When the modern-day version of the CCC,
The Corps Network, needed a data handling system to help reach their goal of getting 100,000 young people and veterans to work improving our nations land and water, they turned to
EcoBlu Analyst.
In February 2014
The Corps Network and
Trout Headwaters rolled out the groundbreaking Waders in the Water aquatic restoration green jobs training program. This innovative program instructs youth corps members and staff nationwide in basic safety, materials and installation for aquatic restoration. As part of the opportunity, all students are granted password-protected access to the Waders in the Water EcoBlu Analyst website.
The cutting-edge mobile information system is fast, wholly interactive, and includes detailed contact information for Corps Network member corps, conservation projects, job listings, and restoration industry contacts as well as useful watershed and ecoregion information.
Michael Muckle, director of the
New Jersey Youth Corps Phillipsburg remarked “Helping my corps members search for jobs in the restoration field used to be a very time-consuming task. I had to sit with them and scour printed directories and reference books that more often than not were outdated. After
The Corps Network introduced us to
EcoBlu Analyst, that all changed. In addition to getting more recent information that is updated automatically, the system is so user-friendly that with just a few minutes of instruction, my corps members can search the data themselves, not only freeing up my time but empowering them by building a workforce-ready skill that will serve them well. The value of that data handling system alone is worth the cost of the Waders in the Water training.”
With the recent release of EcoBlu Analyst 2.0, the powerful big data system is now available to anyone for a
low cost annual subscription.
