Our Philosophy

 

We believe in the
value of:

- hands-on,

- just in time,

- simulated,

- and active learning.

 

Additionally, we believe that learning is a recursive process.

 

That is, in addition to teaching or facilitating knowledge and growth, our trainers are committed to learning from YOU each and every time they train.

 

This is a process that respects your experience and knowledge from the field and encourages networking both during and beyond the class experience.

 

 

Our Training

 

We use a number of different formats to communicate with learners at the NWSTC. These formats include residence classes, onsite workshops, web-based training (WBT), self-paced WBT, teleconferencing, and videoconferencing (i.e. webinars). Often times, multiple formats are used to deliver instructional materials, resulting in what is known as a blended training format.

 

You can preview some of our web-based training materials by visiting the Topics page and locating content relevant to your interests, or learn more about the National Weather Service by going to the Commerce Learning Center (CLC) and taking our Welcome to the NWS online course.
