Hi ASA Community,
I am excited to announce a new CNSL webinar scheduled for Tuesday, December 3 at 12:30 pm by Dr. Nels Johnson. This webinar will address aspects of internal consulting (per member request!) within the US Forest Service, where Nels serves as a mathematical statistician. Please visit the link below to register before Monday, December 2 at 12 noon Eastern time.https://www.amstat.org/ASA/Education/Web-Based-Lectures.aspx#SCCUFSPSRSThe full description of the webinar appears below.
The US Forest Service is a federal land management agency in the United States Department of Agriculture tasked with managing US National Forests, US National Grasslands, and US National Recreation Areas. The US Forest Service has a research and development arm to assist with this mission. The Pacific Southwest Research Station is the portion of the R&D arm focused on research affecting California, Hawaii, and the US affiliated Pacific Islands. Scientists and statisticians at the Pacific Southwest Research Station are frequently not collocated or in the same time zone. In this webinar we will discuss strategies for communicating and managing meetings and projects over such large geographic distances. Additionally, we will discuss strategies to reduce isolation among statisticians and increase collaboration between them.
Please let me know if you have any questions about this webinar or the registration process.Kim------------------------------
