RCS Workshop I: Intro to Linux (Fall 2018)

November 5, 2018 at 1:00 PM to 3:45 PM

Location:5345 Herzberg Laboratories
Cost:Free

The Research Computing Services (RCS) team is announcing an upcoming research computing workshop for any interested researcher (graduate student or faculty):

RCS Workshop I: Introduction to Linux on Monday, November 5th 2018, from 1:00-3:45pm

RCS is available on campus to assist with research computing by offering resources, expertise and knowledge. As part of that mandate, we are offering introductory workshops on several topics and will continue to expand our selection in the future. The sessions will be repeated as required so if you can’t attend the current sessions but are interested, send us an email and we’ll notify you next time they are offered or check the RCS workshop schedule here: https://carleton.ca/rcs/workshops/

The workshop will be hands-on so laptops are required. You will also require some software in order to follow the workshop so please take a look at the “What you’ll need” section in the workshop description.  Unless you are already comfortable with the Linux command line (navigation, file manipulation), we would recommend that you start with the RCS Workshop I before RCS Workshop II.

RSVP to its.rcs@carleton.ca with the workshop(s) you would like to attend. Seating is limited so please make sure to register ahead of time. If there are no seats left when you register, you will be given priority registration for the next time the workshop is offered. Coffee, beverages and pastries will be served (mini muffins, scones, etc).
