This badge has been issued for completing the course Introduction to Climpact: Generating Climate Indices to Support Climate Services online course. This course explores how to generate sector-specific climate information relevant for climate-sensitive sectors through the use of an open-source software package called Climpact. The course consists of 8 modules, each supporting a specific set of learning outcomes. A complete description of the course and supported learning outcomes may be viewed at the following link: https://etrp.wmo.int/mod/page/view.php?id=18224 . Completion of this course demonstrates participation in informal learning supporting the development of skills needed to choose and calculate climate indices from daily temperature and rainfall data, to analyze trends in climate indices, and to explore correlations between sectoral and climate data.
