The 2003 Veteran Training Conference will include a buffet session on the afternoon
of Day 1—meaning that you will have the option of choosing which session you will
attend. The two sessions available—Playing Detective with 01s and Scavenger
Hunts—are described in Question 24 on the home study. This question is not
graded—you simply need to choose which session you would like to attend. Your
Field Supervisor is familiar with both of these buffet sessions and can provide you
with further details, if necessary.
Before you depart for training:
4) Complete the checklist [on page 4 of this memo] for your computer equipment,
ensuring that you have all the equipment that is listed. Every NSDUH staff
member must bring his/her Newton and laptop to the Veteran Training
Session in January. If any FIs fail to arrive at training with their Newton and
laptop, they will be sent home from training and be unable to work on the 2003
NSDUH.
5) You will be receiving an Applicant Package with your “re-hire” letter from Headway
prior to training. You must complete the required forms before arriving to
training to turn in at the NSDUH Welcome Center. Please bring the actual
identification required with your I-9 forms and a photocopy of each
identification piece to training. You will find the List of Acceptable Documents
for identification located in your I-9 form (one document from column A or two
documents [one each] from columns B and C).
6) When you arrive at training, your Newton and laptop computer batteries must be
fully charged. The best time to charge your equipment would be the day before you
leave.
• If you are flying to training, please use caution while transporting the computer.
You must carry the laptop and Newton onto the plane with you—never check
them through with baggage.
• Upon arrival at the hotel, go to the front desk to register for your room.
Determine the location of the NSDUH Welcome Center, and go there after
dropping off your luggage in your hotel room. Be sure you have your laptop
and Newton with you when you go to the NSDUH Welcome Center
along with your completed applicant package.
• You will complete all registration activities at the NSDUH Welcome Center once
you arrive. You will turn in your Headway Applicant Package and provide the
necessary identification (actual and photocopy), return your 2002 Newton and
Gateway, receive your FI ID Badge, and receive information about the training
schedule and the location of your training room.
• The 2 and ½ day training session will begin on Day 1 promptly at 8:15 AM.
