Training and Certification Unit welcomes its newest staff member.

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce our newest member of Training and Certification unit, Elizabeth Stangl. “Liz” comes to DHCD with more than eight years of experience in the training development arena.  Prior to joining DHCD Liz was employed with Qimonda North America (formerly White Oak and Infineon Technologies) and involved in various levels of training from new employee ‘onboarding’ to technical training. Liz brings experience in the delivery of comprehensive training programs, development and implementation of classroom and E-learning programs, as well as customer service delivery. While attending the University of Richmond, Liz earned a Bachelors Degree in Human Resource Management.

Liz will utilize her expertise while working closely with instructors and others in updating existing VBCA programs and in developing a number of new specialized training offerings over the next year.   
Over the next several months, many of you will have an opportunity to meet Liz at upcoming Virginia Building Code Academy courses and at various regional and association meetings. So please join me and the Training and Certification Unit in welcoming Liz Stangl.
