This area provides links to descriptions of training materials developed by SOOs and others and to articles and papers that SOOs have found useful in their training program. It does not contain the materials themselves, but it does provide contact information to obtain copies. There is no formal review process for these materials, so entry in the catalogue is no guarantee of accuracy or quality.
You can submit information about any kind of training material that has been useful in your program. If you have a question about whether something should be included, problems submitting an entry, or suggestions to make the catalogue more useful, please contact: Robert Rozumalski (303) 497-8386.
The
Catalogue has 2 sections. The Training Packages Catalogue contains
descriptions of local office training packages, including materials from seminars,
workshops, and self-study packages. The Training Articles Catalogue contains
references to journal articles and conference papers with an operational focus,
TAs, TMs, and similar materials that SOOs have found useful for their offices.
This section can also catalogue evaluation questions that SOOs have generated
to test their staffs' understanding of COMET modules and modules from other
training groups.
