Below is the link to a 1 hour webinar that the ACS Data User Group held
on the "new" Content Review that the Census Bureau is undergoing. Under
the review process ALL of the questions on the ACS questionnaire will be
carefully reviewed with what many believe could lead to a smaller
questionnaire with less content. With that said users with an interest
in the ACS will want to listen to the webinar.

and a couple of other pieces of information.

Thanks for notifying the list about this webinar. I was surprised to learn about this
since I do not see it listed on the ACS Data Users Group web site. Do you know how the
notification was distributed?

That April 9 (last week) webinar was publicized, if you're in the right loop.
Here's what I saw:
* The host of the webinar, Data Users Group, sent an email 3/27/2014: "Your
Webinar Invitation - Overview of the American Community Survey (ACS) 2014 Content
Review."
If you didn't receive that, you might not be on the ACS DUG distribution list. Follow
up with their site?
* Also, Census Bureau itself sent an 4/2/2014 email: "American Community
Survey (ACS) Public Events in April."
That came thru the Bureau's govdelivery system:
https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/USCENSUS/subscriber/new?topic_id=US…
I recommend subscribing to the topic "ACS Workshops and Webinars" (and while
you're at it, the other ACS topics as well.)
Webinars are not always advertised in the same place. But "webex" webinars that
are organized by Census Bureau itself (the 4/9 webinar was not), you'll usually find
listed here... http://www.census.gov/mso/www/training/
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the email. On the Census subscriptions web page for some odd reason the only
ACS topic I had not checked off concerned ACS Content Review. I must have clicked through
the ACS DUG announcement, though I still find no mention in the ACS DUG site.
Thanks again.
