Classes

The CMAS Center offers semiannual training classes on supported software. Classes will be offered in conjunction with our annual CMAS Conference, as well as once in the spring (usually April). Register for an upcoming class.

Training classes are available for the following CMAS-supported software:

CMAS trainings consists of classroom sessions and lab sessions. All of the CMAS trainings, with the exception of BenMAP, are currently based on UNIX scripts; BenMAP is a Windows-based training. Trainees without any UNIX knowledge will struggle with the UNIX courses, although a basic introduction to UNIX is included with the course materials. Students in this situation are encouraged to learn some basic UNIX on their own before the class. We recommend running through this UNIX/Linux tutorial from the University of Surry, UK if you are a UNIX beginner or need to refresh your memory of UNIX before attending the CMAS trainings. The trainings hosted at the CMAS Center use either Ubuntu Linux laptops or MacOSx systems at the Institute for the Environment Visualization Lab for the lab sessions.

Training Location

Please pay close attention to the training location associated with each training date. Most trainings are offered at the CMAS Training Facility at UNC-Chapel Hill, but training sessions offered around the annual CMAS Conference will be held at the Conference location (Friday Center of UNC). Training courses can also be conducted off site, provided that appropriate facilities are available and there are an adequate number of interested students. For more information about off-site training, please email cmas@unc.edu and explain your training situation and needs.
