The aim of this training school is to prepare for the next generation of VLBI, both in terms of technical development and knowledge transfer between generations of researchers. The new VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS) is being installed worldwide and continues to develop. VGOS promises significant improvement in the accuracy of VLBI results. Thus, VGOS will be of great importance for geosciences and global change research as part of the Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS).

The successful development of VLBI technology in the future requires training and educating the young generation of scientists and their familiarization with all aspects of VLBI technology, starting with VLBI station instrumentation receiving and converting the radio signal, data processing and analysis and obtaining the final results, such as Terrestrial and Celestial Reference Frames and Earth Orientation Parameters.

The IVS Training School is organized by the IVS Committee on Education and Training (IVS CTE)
Details about the school will be made available in due time on the website:
