Finding Training Resources in Meteorology and Hydrology

1. MetEd (from the COMET Program)

MetEd is a collection of open educational resources developed with funding from national meteorological and geoscience agencies from around the world. The site has the functionality of a learning management system with various tools to help the user keep track of and share their learning. Most resources on the site are freely available for reuse for non-commercial, educational use.

2. COMET/MetEd Review of Aeronautical Meteorology

The resources in this Review of Aeronautical Meteorology course are being offered by The COMET^® Program to serve the continuing education needs of aeronautical forecasters around the world. They total over 60 hours of training. The modules and module sections listed in the Course Outline have been chosen as the most useful materials COMET offers for aeronautical forecasting training needs. Many additional modules from the MetEd Website may be useful for individual forecasters, depending on their geographic locations, degree of forecasting experience, and current level of hydrometeorological education.
