Live Training Sessions

Research Computing runs regular in-person training sessions throughout the year. These sessions are free and open to all UF researchers. Most sessions include hands-on exercises and users are encouraged to bring their own computers.

In addition to the regularly scheduled sessions, you can request a Group Training Session for your group.

Many of the sessions are also available as pre-recorded videos linked from this page and also listed on the UFIT Training page.

Training Videos

There are a number of how-to and other training videos on out Training Videos page.

Training Schedule

HiPerGator New User Training in Coursera

See the New user training page, which mirrors and expands upon the content provided in the HiPerGator Account Training in Coursera. This is a private course, only accessible by the link, it will not appear in a search on Coursera.

Effective January 11th, 2021, this training module is required for all new account holders to obtain an account.

AI Education and Training

The AI Education and Training lists selected AI education and learning materials.

Additional Training Opportunities

In addition to the training sessions coordinated by UF Research Computing, we are aware of many training opportunities provided by other institutions and vendors. These are listed below.

Intel Software Tools Technical Webinar Series

This free webinar series presents tools, tips, and techniques that will help sharpen your development skills on developing and improving your high performance compute applications for multicore and manycore on Intel® Xeon® processors and Intel® Xeon Phi™ coprocessors. Expert technical teams at Intel as well as open source innovators discuss development tools, programming models, vectorization and execution models that will get your development efforts powered up to get the best out of your applications and platforms.

Full schedule and registration information is available here.

XSEDE

The Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment online training mostly lists html tutorials offered at the Cornell University. Offered tutorials cover general programming, scripting, parallel programming (concepts, message passing interface (MPI), openmp), visualisation, code improvement, and other topics.

The XSEDE Training Calendar includes many useful webcasts that are provided by a number of institutions. For most events registration is required.

TACC

Many TACC online training sessions are webcast and are listed in the XSEDE Training Calendar above. Training materials, recordings and webcasts are available from the TACC Course Materials site.

-At the UF Research Computing we strive to make our resources accessible, efficient, and easy to use. An important part of the effective research computing is the knowledge of how to apply the many available tools in a productive and efficient manner. Comprehensive and clear documentation, well-structured training, and individual help we provide are all means of achieving that goal. We run a series of training sessions and tutorials during each semester of the school year and in the Summer. These sessions are mostly oriented towards biological computing, but many of them reflect the aspects of the HPC resources that apply to other disciplines as well. See the [[:Category:Training|Training Category]] pages for the records of the previous sessions, to download presentations and handouts, and to [[Training_Session_Request|propose topics of interest to you]].
