Introductory Training for 2022

The Council intends to offer both a Lecture Course and a Field Workshop. Details will be announced by late Spring.

For now, hold the dates of October 28-29 and November 4-5.

The lectures will probably be on Zoom, on Oct 28-29, in the same 2-day format as in 2021, open to all who register and pay. See 2021 syllabus below for content.

The Field Workshop will be required to complete the introductory training and will be given in the field in Ridgecrest CA on either Nov 4 or 5. Each person who registers and pays for the course will need to select a day to complete a field workshop. The field workshops will accommodate course attendees from 2021 who were not able to register for a field workshop in 2021.

Registration will likely open in early July after we work out the details for 2022.
