Tribal Data Toolbox Version 3.1

Course overview

This online training is not an "informational course," but is a rigorous course in which participants complete work products, guided by ITEP instructional staff. Modules contain video presentations, homework assignments, discussions, and one-on-one assistance. 

This course is designed for tribal environmental professionals who are currently monitoring or collecting data for at least one criteria pollutant or for meteorological conditions. It is not possible to take the course without having criteria air pollutants or meteorological data files from their air monitoring stations. Demonstrations use example data, but all assignments are individualized to each participant. Participants are expected to have intermediate-level working knowledge of Microsoft Windows. Although the course is structured around a Microsoft Access database, the database is form-driven and user-friendly; therefore, no previous Access experience is necessary.

During this training, participants will import continuous pollutant and met data, begin entering data from quality control checks performed on their air monitoring samplers, validate their data, generate reports, charts, and AQS-formatted files. 

This online training is equivalent to 8 continuing education units (CEUs) and requires approximately 80 hours of total learning time.
