Registration

After registering, please fill out the pre-workshop evaluation. This survey should take you about 15 minutes to complete.

Before the workshop, complete the workshop's Online Introduction Module. The module contains important background information that will help you to get the most out of the workshop content, and it includes lessons on climate modeling and MN CliMAT that we won't be able to cover during the in-person training. It should take you about 45 minutes to complete.

You must register with the learning software to access the course. Contact Suzi Clark if you have any issues accessing the module.
