Dr. Tom Fiddaman of Ventana Systems, in my opinion the top system dynamics modeler of climate change science and policy, will be leading a public training course next month in New Mexico, USA.

As person who has learned a lot from Tom over the past fifteen years, I would STRONGLY encourage interested folks to sign up.

It will be June 7, in Albuquerque New Mexico, and is titled “Climate Policy & System Dynamics.”

The description says, “Examine the dynamics of climate science and climate policy, using accessible small-scale models. The course assumes familiarity with Vensim, including subscripts as well as a general knowledge of current climate issues.”

He’ll likely include examples from his thesis model from his PhD at MIT as well as C-ROADS and other simpler versions such as C-Learn.
