	Portland NET is not a typical CERT program. NET's large membership base and commitment to community learning mean that NET can grow into areas of disaster preparedness, response, and recovery that many CERT programs do not find the opportunity to explore. That also means NET has become a relatively complicated program with branching and specialized areas of expertise.		Portland NET is not a typical CERT program.

	* '''Saved PBEM staff time:''' An inordinate amount of PBEM staff time was spent writing emails to volunteers answering narrow questions about program protocols or best practices for response. Today, PBEM staff can publish much of that information to NETwiki and send volunteers links to comprehensive articles instead of calling up all the information or research needed in order to complete a reply. With that time saved, PBEM staff has increased capacity to respond to other volunteer requests and program needs.		* '''Saved PBEM staff time:''' An inordinate amount of PBEM staff time was spent writing emails to volunteers answering narrow questions about program protocols or best practices for response.
