Are you interested in bringing real-world climate data, entrepreneurial thinking, and cloud analytics into your classroom? Join us for an info session to learn about the Cloud Analytics Faculty Fellows (CAFF) program - a paid faculty development opportunity supporting innovative, data-driven teaching using NOAA weather and climate datasets.
Fellows will receive $5,000, technical training, and access to regional partners to help design and implement a classroom assignment or activity that engages students with climate resilience, data literacy, and community-relevant problem-solving. Open to full-time faculty of all ranks and disciplines; applications are due February 10, 2026.
Come learn how you can become part of this interdisciplinary community - no prior experience with data analytics or entrepreneurship required.
