NECI April Professional Development webinar

The Climate Adaptation Intern Program: Bolstering adaptive capacity in Utah and training a climate-ready workforce through undergraduate engagement
April 2nd 3 pm Eastern/2 pm Central/1 pm Mountain/Noon Pacific

Description: The Climate Adaption Intern Program (CAIP) is a semester-long, cohort-style Extension program at Utah State University where undergraduates are work with experts to develop resources (e.g., fact sheets) that correspond to climate needs in Utah and the surrounding region. In this talk, I will describe CAIP, the outcomes and impacts from our first ~1.5 years of activity, and why we think the program is well-poised to be replicated in other universities/states.

He started his position in August 2022. He also has a significant research role where he leads the Climate Change in Mountains Lab.
