Workshops

The Nautical Research Guild is proud to offer an ongoing series of online workshops.  These workshops feature subject-matter experts discussing ship modeling topics in a live setting that includes detailed instruction and extensive Q&A.


Our workshops are offered online, allowing you to attend regardless of where you live.  Just sign up, click a link, and enjoy the workshop.  We've hosted multiple workshops on different topics and have many more workshops in the works.

Workshops are FREE to NRG Members.  Non-members can register for any workshop for a nominal fee.  Members can also view previous  workshops using the links provided.

How it Works

The NRG's online workshops are held online.  You need to register in advance (space is limited!).  Once you register, you'll receive a link to attend the online workshop.  At the day and time of the workshop, just click the link and you'll be able to join the workshop right from your web browser.

If you're an active NRG member, you can view previous workshops at any time from this page.


How the registration process works

Although signing up to an online event is relatively easy, we do appreciate that there are some members who will need guidance in this process. To this end, we have created a document for you to download and keep. This will be applicable to all of our workshop sessions, so you can refer to it whenever you need to.
