CRM is Crew Resource Management

Mandatory for FAAM and Met Office staff, we've all found this highly valuable achieving the safest, and the most efficient delivery of science.

A 3 hour abbreviated CRM course will be put on Thursday 18 April at Manchester University.  The trainer will be Ritchie Fennell from BAeS (who also trains FAAM), and it'll be from 1300-1600 in room 1.06 of the Simon Building.  All scientists who work with FAAM are very welcome to attend, but we especially encourage Mission and Instrument Scientists from the Universities of Manchester, Leeds and York.  It really is useful stuff and well worth your time, and Ritchie is an excellent trainer.

If you plan to attend please email Julie Samson [ This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ] letting her know, copied to Guy Gratton ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ).
