ARCHER2

EPCC provides training for users of the ARCHER2 service

Whilst these courses focus primarily on the ARCHER2 system, they also include courses of wider interest, including courses on MPI and OpenMP. Many course videos and course materials are available.

Software Sustainability Institute

EPCC is actively involved with the UK’s Software Sustainability Institute (SSI), through which we offer training courses in Software Carpentry and Data Carpentry which are designed to introduce researchers in various fields to Software Engineering and Data Science.

European collaborative project

We help to deliver courses in Computational Biomedicine as a Core Partner of the European Commission-funded CompBioMed Centre of Excellence.

Supercomputing MOOC

In collaboration with partners from PRACE, EPCC has developed a 5-week Supercomputing MOOC (a free, open, online course) in Supercomputing. The course is designed for anyone interested in leading-edge computing technology, supercomputers or the role that computer simulation takes in modern science and engineering.

Data science workshops for health and biosciences researchers

Ed-DaSH workshops teach a mix of existing and new content, including new material developed in parallel by other initiatives, to address the skills gaps most frequently identified by health and bioscience researchers. EPCC manages Ed-DaSH, and provides technical support for its workshops through the Edinburgh International Data Facility.

Bespoke courses

We can create bespoke courses in areas related to HPC, Data Management and Data Science for technical or general audiences. Please contact us to discuss your requirements.
