AMSAT Orbital Classroom concept study announced

Stefan, VE4NSA has been asked to organize and coordinate an amateur radio space communications training concept called the 'Orbital Classroom'.

Stefan said, "Here is an opporturnity for AMSAT members
to voice their needs for education. We are listening and working on this."

Stefan asks interested AMSAT members to send him your answers to these questions via e-mail (ve4nsa@amsat.org).

1. Would you be interested in attending pre-conference courses and workshops as part of the annual meeting or at other venues?

2. Would you be willing to pay a registration fee that would cover course material, instructor cost etc.?

3. Would you be interested in receiving a certificate for ongoing education as it relates to amateur radio and satellites?

4. What topics would you like to see taught at such courses?

5. Would you be willing in helping to organize and facilitate courses (you don't have to teach for this one, just help the instructor and take care of registration, etc)?

6. Would you be willing to teach a course and if yes, on which topics?

Stefan concludes, "That's a start and hopefully it sparks your interest as a participant, facilitator or instructor. As always, your opinion counts and even more your help is greatly appreciated."
