Western JWST Proposal Training Workshop

Join us at the University of Western Ontario for an all-day JWST proposal training workshop

March 12th, 9:00 am to 6:00 pm

The University of Wester Ontario will be hosting a proposal training workshop for NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) on March 12th, 2020, in preparation for the Cycle 1 General Observer (GO) call for proposals (deadline May 1st, 2020).

This all-day workshop will provide an overview of the JWST capabilities, instrument modes, and proposal planning tools such as the Exposure Time Calculator (ETC) and Astronomer's Proposal Tool (APT), and other relevant tools, through example science cases and hands-on exercises.

Registration is free but space is limited.

Please note that these workshops are run by volunteers

Note from STScI: JWST Master class graduates offer a valuable service to their local communities by organizing JWST proposal planning workshops. They help potential proposers find the basic information they need to prepare for JWST, and they facilitate the initial learning process. Graduates are not representatives of STScI, and there is no expectation that they will be able to respond to all inquiries and questions. The final authority for all information about JWST science and the proposal process resides with the JWST Documentation System (JDox), the STScI Helpdesk at jwsthelp.stsci.edu, and the JWST science website at jwst.stsci.edu.
