What will I learn?

Astronomer Training is a short, practical course that guides you from selecting stellar targets and estimating planetary parameters to planning efficient observing runs and exposure times. Learn to handle time standards, compute O–C diagrams, estimate noise and detection confidence, and design clear tables and figures. You also gain best practices for data sharing, documenting limitations, and proposing impactful follow-up work.
