Registration is now open for our annual SHARCNET Summer School on Advanced Research Computing . The school is an annual educational event for graduate/undergraduate students, postdocs and researchers who are engaged in compute-intensive research. These schools are free and provide beginner-to-intermediate level courses on a wide range of subjects, from traditional high performance computing (MPI, CUDA) to data science, machine learning, and popular languages (Python, R etc.); they also include domain-specific courses.
This year the School will be run entirely online due to COVID-19 pandemic . It will start on May 25 as a single stream event and will run until Canada Day.

Participants need to register to attend the summer school. Registration is per-course, with no limits on the number of courses. All attendees are required to have a Compute Canada account before registering. Compute Canada accounts are free, but one has to be affiliated with a Canadian academic institution to qualify for one. To apply for a Compute Canada account, please follow this link: https://www.computecanada.ca/research-portal/account-management/apply-for-an-account/ . Be aware that it might take a couple of business days to get your account approved.
Once you have a Compute Canada account, you can login to our Training web site using your Compute Canada credentials:
