You may have seen in the previous Training Bulletin, the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) and COMET are offering a Blended Winter Weather Course for operational meteorologists, with a focus on ‘Adding Value to NWP Through Winter Applications’. They have now set a deadline for expressing your interest in this course in either the online-only format or in the combined (online and residence) portion. The deadline for expressing interest is 12 July 2019.
To be added to the list of interested parties, please email Bryan Guarente (guarente@ucar.edu) with your name, country, the organisation you work for, and which course you would like to attend (online-only or combined).
Selection will be done using an objective scoring system, based on your organisation and heavily weighted by latitude. If you are selected you are required to work with your management to confirm, in writing, that you can attend and that the funds are being set aside for your travel to the United States. The deadline for that confirmation letter will be 26 July 2019.
