About this ebook

The experience of HEC in integrating computer applications into its continuing education program for hydrologic engineers has indicated that it is possible to provide experienced engineers with a good working knowledge of computer-oriented problem-solving techniques in a continuing education environment. However, it appears that the effectiveness of integrating computer applications into continuing programs--as measured by the ability of the engineers to use the techniques in their normal working environment--is dependent upon three factors: the availability of broadly applicable, well-documented computer programs in the technical subject; the development of workshop problems for use in the training program to illustrate the capability of the programs for solving both routine and unusual problems; and the availability of rapid turn-around computer capability that enables the trainees to obtain 'hands-on' experience in using the programs.
