Virtual Residency 2019 Summer Workshop on Introductory / Intermediate Research Computing Facilitation
Does your institution have lots of researchers and educators who want to use advanced computing, but need some help learning how? Tune in to the Virtual Residency 2019 Summer Workshop on Introductory / Intermediate Research Computing Facilitation. You or someone at your institution can learn to be more effective at helping researchers and educators use research computing!
This is a great way to start, or get better at, a career in helping researchers use research computing. It's also a great way to meet a community of fellow research computing facilitators. Anyone we can't accept for onsite will automatically be converted to remote -- no one will be left out!
There's NO PREREQUISITE other than an interest in helping researchers with their computing-intensive/data-intensive research.
All sessions will be available remotely via videoconferencing!
