Symbiotia Webinar Series: 3rd Friday of every month at 3-4pm EST from January – June 2016

Project Managers from several NSF TCNs (MiCC, SERNEC, LBCC, SCAN, and MaCC) will present a series of six webinars focused on understanding all aspects of Symbiotic software and how this web-based collections management tool is used in various plant, fungus and animal portals.  Each 30-45 minute webinar will focus on a different topic including: 1) a general overview of collections management features, 2) record creation, 3) transcription, 4) georeferencing, 5) crowdsourcing, and 6) a topic chosen by the webinar series participants.
