The NISE Network runs a series of free online workshops to increase the number of professional development opportunities available to our partners, and create more channels for partners to share their work and learn from each other directly.
Finding and Collaborating with Astronomy Experts and Volunteers
Tuesday, January 17, 2017; 2 - 3pm Eastern / 11am - 12pm Pacific
Connecting with astronomy and space science experts in your community: amateur astronomers, research scientists, and other experts are often enthusiastic volunteers eager to share their excitement for astronomy with the public. Learn how to find local experts and effectively collaborate with them to strengthen your astronomy and space science programs.
Presenters
We will be joined by Vivian White from NASA's Night Sky Network, and Kay Ferrarri and Heather Doyle from NASA's Solar System Ambassadors program.
