Training courses

Training sessions run regularly to introduce users to the Joint Information Platform for Natural Hazards (GIN).

Basic courses

Training sessions consist of two blocks:

  • Block 1, held in the morning, provides a basic introduction with exercises.
  • Block 2, held in the afternoon, focuses on creating your own dossiers.

You can also participate in individual blocks. Confirmed registrations are binding. Courses require a minimum of eight participants and are free of charge.

Advanced training for experts

Short, virtual training blocks with the Confederation's natural hazards agencies will now also be on offer. The aim here is to provide instruction on the information available on GIN by means of examples. These blocks will be conducted by experts from the natural hazards agencies (FOEN, MeteoSwiss and SLF). If there is sufficient demand, there will be a block in German and French running at the same time.
