Educational Materials Coordinator – Leslie Vanni

Leslie is the newest member of the National Office Staff, having joined our team on January 8th of this year.

The position of Educational Materials Coordinator is a new staff position and was established in response to a significant need for full-time and consistent project management support for senior volunteers in the Educational Department, primarily for the development and revision of all course materials.

Ms. Vanni brings to CPS-ECP many of the required key technical skills and professional experiences to this role. In her work experiences she has designed and developed learning solutions and programs for a variety different learning environments and applications. She is also fully bilingual, which will assist greatly in ensuring that all of our course materials are available in both French and English. Not only will her work benefit the organization today with the delivery of current and printed materials, she will also play an instrumental role going forward with electronic delivery of course content and materials.

While Leslie will not provide direct service to individual members and students, her work with CPS-ECP will enhance the quality and timeliness of all course materials utilised in our courses today and into the future.

She can be reached at lvanni@cps-ecp.ca or by calling the National Office at extension 0157.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
