Dr. Alphonso Porter officially opened the workshop. Regional NCM Coordinator Dhariana Balbuena led the sessions on the first day teaching the basics of NCM. NCM Global Program Coordinator for Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Response, Brandon Sipes, facilitated the training on the second day on that critical subject matter. Coordinators for the Caribbean Field Rev. Kelron and Dr. Ro-Anne Harry also were a part of the event.<\/p>\n<p>This training was noteworthy in that it marks the first time that all the District NCM Coordinators and the District Superintendents on the Caribbean Field participated together in a forum for the advancement of NCM.<\/p>\n<p>One of the themes emphasized in the workshop was that the Caribbean Field is faced with many challenges to implement and coordinate the programs. As a multi-island field spanning almost 3000 km in distance and comprising some fourteen districts across 20 countries, programmatic coordination is no easy feat. The Caribbean Field will have to employ innovative ways of staying connected including video-conferencing and other forms technology in order to raise the profile of NCM and achieve its goals.<\/p>\n<p>Source: Dr. Ro-Anne Harry, Caribbean Field NCM Coordinator<\/p>\n<div id=\"69da00e0b63da\" class=\"gg_gallery_wrap gg_true_gallery gg_masonry_gallery gid_56968 gg_hidden_ol
