Dear Colleagues I am delighted to inform you that today the "Louisiana State University, Biological Sciences Access Grid Node" achieveed Quality Assurance Status. It should be node that this is the first Access Grid node in the United States to achieve the Global Quality Assurance status.
More importantly, John I Quebedeaux Jr has accepted the position for QA tester for the region of Louisiana State within the United States. A current list of Regional testers can be found at http://www.accessgrid.org/qatesters. I would invite anyone else considering becoming a Regional QA Tester for the Access Grid to consider the following prerequisites: * Your node must be "Quality Assured" (this is generally done by me); * You would need to undergo some basic training (about an hour's worth); and * It would be preferable if you have been using Access Grids on a regular basis for some time. If you are interested, please don't hesitate to contact me!!! For those who wish to obtain Quality Assured Status, it is recommended that you: * Read http://www.accessgrid.org/node/493 to find out the test requirements for the quality assurance process. * Read http://www.accessgrid.org/node/352 to obtain hints and tips on getting your Access Grid Node up to the required high standard. * The website http://www.accessgrid.org/node/705 highlights the marking sheets. These are the same marking sheets that "we" as QA testers will use. * Contact your local regional QA AG tester, as a list of QA testers can be found at http://www.accessgrid.org/qatesters. Once again, congratulations to the work of " Louisiana State University, Biological Sciences Access Grid Node" in its effort for achieving such a high quality standard.
