15 May

Country Data Set Analysis and LEAP training

8:30    Tea/Coffee

8:45 – 12:30     Working Session with Country Datasets and Alternative Pathways

NOTE: The intent is that this Working Session be used by participants as an opportunity to present specific aspects of their datasets and National or Regional Alternative Paths that they particularly want group feedback on and/or wish to ask questions about.  This time also could be used to work on datasets with the help of other participants and trainers, or to receive additional training in LEAP, as well as to consider ways of integrating AES 2005 topics into existing National Alternative and Regional Alternative Paths.   In some cases participants will work in small groups, and in some cases the whole group may review a LEAP dataset on the overhead screen.  Participants should come to this session prepared to present their dataset, ask questions, and request assistance on whatever modeling questions they have, and with a specific LEAP task or tasks to complete during the Working Session.

10:15 – 10:30  BREAK

12:30 – 13:30  LUNCH

13:30 – 15:30 Continue Working with Country Datasets

NOTE: It is expected that this session will generally continue the format and topics of the morning session.
