All courses are open for registration 6-8 weeks prior to the course dates. Training courses focus on providing the participant with formal instruction in a structured setting using a variety of instructional methods. However, attendees are encouraged to ask questions and actively participate in the course work. Click here for descriptions of training courses. Seminars provide a forum for learning in a less formal environment.
NISH trainers provide instruction, facilitate the sessions and answer questions.
Formal instruction, roundtable discussions, networking with other producers under the JWOD program and on-site visits are integral components of these seminars. The success of seminars depends on the level of participation of the attendees. Seminars may be held near a JWOD project to allow for site visits and on-site instruction. Training is conducted in an informal laboratory type setting and requires active participation by attendees. In addition to the training categories outlined above, NISH also provides regional, state, and local CRP training to support JWOD initiatives.
