National Food Safety Educator's Network (EdNet)

EdNet is a new electronic network allowing food safety educators around the country to connect on a daily basis.

While there have always been informal contacts between various groups and organizations, there has not been a system to connect the interested parties. It has often been the "professional grapevine" that has connected educators. Now, EdNet will be the electronic grapevine.

The goal of EdNet is to provide a forum where all parties interested in food safety education can communicate and share information easily on an ongoing basis. To begin, EdNet will be a direct e-mail communication from the federal government to subscribers.

In addition to FSIS and FDA, federal agencies involved in the effort include USDA's Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service as well as Agricultural Research Service. Also participating are the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

To join EdNet, email your name, address and phone number to: RDouglas@Bangate.FDA.gov. Or, call Robyn Brown Douglas at (202) 205-2857. Please be sure to state whether your interest is primarily consumer/health professional education or retail/food service education.
