Full Workshop Description:
Preparing forecasters and others to successfully use new-generation satellite products requires careful thought and planning. In this session, we’ll bring together trainers interested in helping diverse audiences build skills related to using environmental satellite data and products across various applications. Learners will be able to address such questions as: What new training is needed? Among existing defined satellite competencies, what areas are most lacking in training opportunities? When is the training needed? What lessons from user preparation for the US GOES-R Series satellites and other observing systems can be relevant to new systems like MTG? What existing training resources are usable and relevant across regions? What weather phenomena or other applications are currently not well addressed within the global training community? 

In this session, participants will work on their own plans to prepare users to effectively use satellite data and tools. The group will work toward filling the gap between wishes, visions, and reality by curating a list of existing resources, identifying training needs, and developing a plan to address gaps and expand learner skills across satellite competencies. Finally, the group will compile possible instructional goals to support the next stage of satellite training. Examples of satellite related exercises from the facilitators and from participants will help demonstrate the varied modes for addressing the skills, practice, or competencies underlying a specified training need and can inform the development of initial prototypes. Technical requirements include a Web browser, internet connection, and access to Google Drive and other potential open-source collaboration tools.
