RA-I WMO Global Campus Meeting NMHS Collaboration Opportunities
NMHSs Face Growing Challenges 1. Changes in workforce numbers, profiles, and roles 2. Expansion of existing and new services for NMHSs 3. Lack of training resources in some countries to support development and expansion of capacity in growing service areas 4. The need for new training to help meet competency standards 5. Stresses to training budgets that require introduction of new training strategies, technologies, and delivery methods that can make training more efficient and cost-effective.
Possibilities Through Working Together • Increased training opportunities to broaden the knowledge-base, skills and job competencies of NMHS staff, especially in LDCs, SIDS and Developing Countries • Increased access to existing training for developing WMO competencies, streamlining the development of training programmes and resources • Increased quality of training programmes and resources • Increased interaction with WMO programmes and Commissions • Reduction in the overall cost of some training events, increasing the reach of training • Increased options for reuse and for distance learning
