Session Abstract:

This session is a follow up to one that I presented at ACE/NETC 2007 in Albuquerque. Since November of 2006, Vermont has been using its own on-line 4-H database to keep track of member, leader and volunteer enrollments. The secure statewide database is accessible to any user with an Internet connection. It gives county educators, staff and statewide administrators, up-to-the-minute access to all information that we have collected. Currently, the application does not create an ES-237 report, but we use the database "crunch the numbers" when filling out the ES-237 report. We have been continually tweaking the application to meet the needs of our 4-H educators and county staff. Educators and staff have been very happy with improvements over applications that were used in previous years.
