The BIPM and EURAMET are running a joint knowledge transfer initiative at the Real Instituto y Observatorio de la Armada (ROA), Spain, from 29 to 31 October 2024.

Overview of the course

The course will give participants an introductory overview of state-of-the-art techniques on national time scales and dissemination of time and frequency signals. The course will include laboratory demonstrations to gain hands-on experience. Presentations of experiences from different countries around the world will give participants information on existing possibilities.

The course tutors are internationally recognized experts in their fields. The participants are free to interact with them since there will be plenty of time for discussions and questions. During registration, students are invited to identify their specific training interests to ensure that the course tutors can tailor the lectures accordingly.

The course will offer a valuable opportunity for participants to network with colleagues and world-wide experts and give them an opportunity to discuss various aspects of national and international implementation. This knowledge will enable participants to later design their optimal national time scales and time and frequency dissemination infrastructure.

Target audience

The course is designed for staff of NMIs/DIs who already have basic experience in the field of time and frequency metrology or who need to gain initial experience in these measurements, coming from the institutes that look forward to implementing a national time scale and time and frequency dissemination.

Participants from EURAMET NMIs/DIs will be given priority. However, based on availability of slots, registrations from other RMOs will be considered.

Participation is free of charge, but registration is requested, please visit the EURAMET-BIPM course webpage.
