Winter bootcamp: an Auckland Software Carpentry workshopNeSI and the University of Auckland joined forces to host a Software Carpentry workshop at the University of Auckland City campus on July 11-12, 2016. Juliana Osorio-Jaramillo, Teererai Marange, Chen Wang, and Kaitlin Logie prepared the following blog about the event: "A two day Software Carpentry Workshop with Python was held at the University of Auckland 11-12th July as part of Winter Bootcamp. For myself, it was the first time helping with Software Carpentry training. It was a great experience to assist as a collaborator, helping others resolving problems with software installation and hands-on exercises, but also learning from all the unexpected situations that could happen with different people around the room, with different laptops, configurations, and different sets of skills."

CRI Coding Conference 2016Software development is fundamental to a plethora of research endeavours these days, including at New Zealand’s Crown Research Institutes (CRIs). However, those writing the codes don’t often get the opportunity to ‘talk shop’ with people outside of their own organisation. NeSI and Science NZ are excited to bring you the CRI Coding Conference 2016. Running from August 2 to 3 at NIWA's head office in Auckland, this two-day workshop is an opportunity for developers from across all the CRIs in New Zealand to engage with their peers, share ideas, challenges and opportunities, and learn about the technology landscapes being adopted by other CRIs.
