Rick Dickert
Rick Dickert studied meteorology at San
Jose State University and UCLA. He was elected a full member of the American
Meteorological Society (AMS) in 1994 and is recognized as a meteorologist by
the organization. Dickert also earned a degree in geography. In 2002, he was
awarded the Television Seal of Approval by the AMS. In May of 2005, Rick was
the first weathercaster in Los Angeles to be awarded the prestigious
Certified Broadcast Meteorologist seal by the AMS. The seal is sought as a
mark of distinction and a recognition of the achievement in the
communication of scientific information. The AMS grants the CBM designation
to broadcast meteorologists who meet established criteria for scientific
competence and effective communication skills in their weather
presentations. The CBM is a new program, launched in January 2005 as an
upgrade to the Society’s Seal of Approval.
