About this Event

The 2022 CRAM Training sessions will follow the modified format implemented last year. In this format, CRAM training will consist of a virtual classroom portion and an in-person, but entirely outdoors, field portion. The classroom portion will combine participants from across the state, and will be held before the field portion, up to 4-6 weeks in advance.
