DESCRIPTION:This course was a remote event.\n\nThe objective of this cours
 e is to assist Member States and Co-operating States in advanced training 
 on the operational aspects of the ECMWF forecasting system. The aim of the
  course is to increase participants’ ability to examine and assess ECMWF
  output products. It is directed towards staff who are (or will be) using 
 ECMWF products either directly as forecasting staff or in research and dev
 elopment work\, and to trainers and training champions. The course aims to
  help users get maximum benefit from the Centre's products.\n\nLectures on
  aspects of the ECMWF forecasting system will be complemented with practic
 al sessions where participants will use ECMWF forecasts in real case situa
 tions. Participants will have the opportunity to familiarise themselves wi
 th recently developed web applications for data visualisation.\n\nThe ense
 mble forecast (ENS) will be presented and the range of available products 
 will be introduced. A large part of the course will be devoted to the inte
 rpretation of these products and to the evaluation of their quality. Poten
 tial benefits of the probabilistic formulation of the forecast for medium-
 range to seasonal-range applications will also be demonstrated.\n\nWe will
  ask participants to complete pre-course activities or learning tasks whic
 h will take up to a maximum of one day of self-study. Completing pre-cours
 e activities helps to ensure that participants are prepared to learn and a
 pply the new content in the course. It also provides information that trai
 ners need to make the course more relevant to students' experience and wor
 king environment. These tasks include completing two eLearning modules (1 
 hour) and contributing to a forum discussion.\n\nhttps://events.ecmwf.int/
