Dear participants,
Welcome to the e-learning section of the Use and interpretation of ECMWF products course that will take place at the ECMWF headquarters in Reading on 9 to 12 October 2023.
The aim of the course is to increase your ability to examine, assess, and utilise ECMWF output products and to provide you advanced training on the operational aspects of the ECMWF forecasting system. It will help you when using ECMWF products either directly for forecasting or in research and development work. The aim is to help you get maximum benefit from our Centre's products!
Lectures on a variety of aspects of the ECMWF forecasting system and ECMWF forecasting products will be complemented with practical sessions where you will work in small groups with an expert trainer to assess ECMWF forecasts in real case study situations. You will also learn how to effectively use web applications for data visualisation.
An example timetable is shown for the course in 2022 to give you some idea of what is covered, we will inform you once this years' edition is final. Please note that ask lectures will be given in English.
As you know, you will be required to complete pre-course activities which will take up around 12 hours of self-study. These activities include completing online e-learning modules, creating a poster or presentation on how you are currently using ECMWF products and contributing to online discussion forums. The completion of these tasks will ensure you all have the knowledge to get the most out of the interactive part of the course and it will also help the trainers to better understand what you would like to achieve and discuss during the course.
We encourage you to explore this e-learning platform and make use out of its interactive functions such as the forums, to get to know each other and discuss anything you'd like between participants ahead of meeting each other in October.
We look forward to welcoming you in Reading!
