PROGRAM

The Partnership Program includes one week at the Climate Services Division (CSD) of the NWS Office of Climate Water and Weather Services and one week at the Climate Prediction Center (CPC) of NCEP. Both CSD and CPC live very dynamic lives and, therefore, the Partnership Program can offer different activities throughout the year. It will also vary with regard to a visitor's interest in the office. So, each visitor will get a "custom tailored" program according to her or his interests and purpose of the visit. Although the program will vary between each month and each visitor, the Program's core activities will remain unchanged throughout the year:

CSD
Monday acquaintance with the NWS Headquarters and with the CSD, attendance at the OCWWS staff meeting, Visitor's presentation
Tuesday one-on-one discussions with CSD personnel
