HPC On-boarding 14-17 October 2024

The Norwegian Research Infrastructure Services (NRIS) is offering an on-boarding hands-on course for new users of HPC systems.

The course is highly recommended for all new users of national HPC systems (Saga, Fram, Betzy) and all interested in the feild. Targeted Audience: The course is aimed at students, researchers and employees of any background. We assume no prior knowledge of what an HPC is or how to use it. For those who have little experience with UNIX-like operating systems such as Linux or who have never worked on the command line of a terminal, the first day of the course is dedicated for you.

The course is open to all and free of charge.
