free training for construction trades

I am a retired Civil Engineer. After retiring, I consulted on the reconstruction of lower Manhattan following the devastation of 911. At that time I began making photos and videos capturing a broad spectrum of construction activities. From that content I prepared a Course on Infrastructure Projects. The Course was approved by New York State for Professional Engineers to meet their requirements for Continuing Education. I have since placed the classes on YouTube to make them available to the industry. I recently received a thank you email from a crane operator and I realize that I never made an effort to promote these classes to the construction trades. I learned much of what I know about construction from the foremen and I have tremendous respect for them. The classes can be accessed by visiting my site at csites.com. Select classes and you will find a description of each class and links to the YouTube videos. Please share this email with anyone who provides training for the construction trades. Thanks.
