Note that the CPC will be broadly similar to the AMS Science Policy Colloquium<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ametsoc.org/spc__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMb6oL4zY$> (SPC) with a deeper emphasis on climate issues. The 2025 SPC will occur, as usual, the first full week of June (June 1-6).



Please share the announcement below with any colleagues who might be interested in climate policy and developing their capacity for societal engagement.

The 2024 CPC will occur from December 15-19, 2024 in Washington, DC.



Pre-registration is available and registration will open soon (see details here<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.ametsoc.org/index.cfm/ams/policy/colloquia/cpc/register/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMU7gp0zs$>). Registration will be limited and based on the order completed. A national competition for support of graduate students and postdocs<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.ametsoc.org/index.cfm/ams/policy/colloquia/cpc/financial-support/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMZGQcG-x$> in participating in the 2024 CPC is also open. Applications for support are due October 1, 2024.



Please see the preliminary agenda<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://bit.ly/AMSCPC24__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMRNHDM2C$> and main event webpage<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ametsoc.org/cpc__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMTXXnK4t$> for details and updates.



The Climate Policy Colloquium<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ametsoc.org/cpc__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMTXXnK4t$> is intended to be an intensive immersion in the U.S. Federal policy process for scientists and professionals working in climate and climate-related fields.



Colloquium participants will learn about climate policy and the U.S. Federal policy process. The cohort will meet with people working in congress, leading officials from the executive branch, and prominent policy experts. Legislative exercises and policy simulations provide additional windows into the interplay of policy, politics, and procedure in the United States Federal policy process.



The CPC is intended to be a career-shaping experience and is based on the AMS Science Policy Colloquium (SPC)<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.ametsoc.org/spc__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!gin8f8Wp-aFSAvGPDUhi1N9c4ydmfbYbwkPIpadP1vI_hHCahfZLdls-vDwsr4g6rrHNvQuHMb6oL4zY$> with a sharper focus on climate policy.



Please email me (phiggins at ametsoc.org<mailto:phiggins at ametsoc.org>) if you have any questions.



Best wishes,
Paul Higgins
