From 20 to 29 April 2015, the UN affiliated Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education in Asia and the Pacific (RCSSTEAP), based in Beihang University, Bejijng, organized the ten-day course "Satellite Navigation Technology and Applications". A total of 30 participants from 11 countries participated in the training programme. The aim of the training was to support early career researchers and professionals working on the topics of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and BeiDou technologies.
UN-SPIDER is planning to conduct two training programmes in April.
From 5 to 9 April 2015, the programme is jointly organizing the five-day course "Earth observation technologies for disaster damage and loss assessment" in Dhaka, Bangladesh with the Department of Disaster Management (DDM) in Bangladesh.
Capacity-building and the strengthening of institutional arrangements and individual skills are key to increasing the ability of agencies and organizations to effectively use space-based information and services for disaster reduction, preparedness, response, and recovery. The UN-SPIDER database on external training opportunities offers an overview of available training courses.
