Todd, as an advocate for social justice, economic empowerment & healthy lifestyle skills, Im thankful for the enlightment of this article. Having both a non-profit and a social enterprise in the Green Enegy Industry, I was one, whom was at a lost for the importance of IT, for those individuals who have yet an understanding of the Green Industry. In fact, I myself often find frustrations with IT, the technical terms and the programing, having three sites to maintain. Still now that you have clearly explained how it correlates in a manner that makes it clear, and Im thankful. Yet, however, as you have stated, many individuals, much like myself I have found, what was most helpful is explaining it in laymens terms, giving examples, putting it in terms where a 6th grader can understand. Therefore, if we are truly going to make a greater impact, we have to reach them in a language of a level of understanding. Thus the process itself is much to grasp therefore I would like to recommend that we consider the language used in this method of training. So again Im thankful for this understanding now I can better explain, in a matter that will reach the grassroots demographics.
