Description

Training Schools will take place preferably in conjunction with the workshops organized by the COST Action in order to present the different aspects of the sensing technologies for AQC, methods, models, forecasting, protocols and standards for environmental monitoring and eco-sustainability. These courses will be devoted to PhD students, young scientists, early-stage researchers (ESR) and woman-scientists. The teachers will be from participating COST partnership and international keynote experts. Additionally, ESRs will be stimulated to participate at research laboratories of the COST partnership for short-term scientific visits to strengthen knowledge, exchange and training on job. A tutor in the host-institution will report to ESR Manager on visit of ESR by a simple summary. The ESR manager will collect the various ESR visit-reports to prepare yearly a detailed communication to MC. This will be very useful for high quality of the impact generated by the short-visit and scientific mission.

Objectives:

Definition of Training Schools and their Training Scientific and Technological Programme for Early Stage Researchers (ESR) and other students, including interested experienced researchers.

Activities:

Prepare Programme of Training Schools (Teachers, Trainees, Place, Venue, Location, etc.) for Action and reporting to MC. COST Rules for Training Schools.

Deliverables (MoU):

4 Training Schools during Action 4-year period (one/year).
