Course has been offered in 4 languages
We want to make the numerous course resources available 24/7/365 for all WMO Members (and anyone else)

Well researched, solid foundation, and based on years of experience
Funding by WMO and Eumetcal (thanks Alessandro!)
Generous support for the development time by WMO Director of Education and Training (Jeff Wilson and Yinka Adebayo)
