A virtual MS Teams meeting on the Optimization program. Time will be allowed for an introduction to Optimization and its services followed by a Q&A session. Below is some background information on the Optimization program. Register to learn more!

What can Optimization do for Me? is a one-hour webinar that will provide detail on the review process and the benefits an RPM can expect to derive. The optimization review process will be presented so the participant will learn (1) how the process is applied in practical terms, (2) how the process is modified to address site-specific circumstances, (3) the RPM and stakeholder role in collaborating with the optimization team to make the review process efficient and beneficial, and (4) how to tell if a site is a good candidate for an optimization.
In this webinar participants will:

  • Learn what optimization is, the history of the program and where it is today.
  • Examine the optimization review process including a primer on the standard operating procedures, expectations, activities frequently conducted and information on fund-lead versus PRP-lead optimizations.
  • Receive updates on results reported in the Optimization Progress Report and lessons learned from optimization.

The course provides opportunities for interactive question and answer to give RPMs a clear sense of the intellectual and time investment required for an optimization review and the benefits of applying the process. This webinar is recommended for RPMs and other site managers of all levels who are considering an optimization review or who are interested in learning more about the process.
