Introduction
This report provides a description of existing services, both external and in-house, available to APA divisions for hosting and broadcasting webcasts to their members and other interested professionals, and specifically looks at the external Planning Webcast series.

Mission Statement *
To develop DC’s recommendations for educational programs, professional development and mentoring to be provided by divisions.
1. To seek opportunities for complementary efforts among divisions, and with APA's component groups, including the Chapter Presidents Council (CPC), Student Representative Council (SRC), and American Institute of Certified Planners (AICP).
2. The committee will also consider collaboration opportunities with external organizations where it serves APA's interests and furthers the adopted Development Plan.
“In addition to its standing mission, the DC Education Committee (EC) shall develop one or more models through which Divisions may both deliver Certification Maintenance (CM) content and also generate additional sources of revenue for Divisions. The Committee shall consider current APA policies regarding access to Webinar software and the pricing of such access. Also, in building a revenue or business model, consider the pricing of other CM offerings, especially Webinars.”
Towards these objectives, key team members were recruited at the National Conference in Boston. Refer to Appendix 2 for committee composition.
