Training
Webinars
We have developed a series of training webinars to support understanding and appropriate use of CAREX information. These webinars provide an overview of our website, the methods and data we employ, some of the tools we've developed to explore and interpret our estimates, and an opportunity to ask questions to scientists on the CAREX team.
We held a total of five webinars this past year and recordings are available at the links below. Please check back regularly as our schedule grows, or subscribe to the CAREX eBulletin and receive notification of upcoming webinars by email. If you would like to inquire about in-person training for your group, please contact us at info@carexcanada.ca.
